High Speed Rail: Education Interchange 2020

The key question addressed by the conference High Speed Rail: Education Interchange (HSR:EI) is how research and education can continue to support the development of HSR, to widen the revolution in mobility and decarbonise transport systems globally and in the UK. Despite the current transport paralysis due to Covid-19, High Speed Rail projects are progressing in many parts of the world, including the HS2 project in the UK.

The HSR:EI conference will explore how industry, educators and trainers can work together to develop and deliver HSR systems. Delegates will share knowledge on current research, initiatives, innovations and best practice and international knowledge transfer drawing on their experiences. They will discuss the challenges facing project sponsors, universities, railway businesses and the wider supply industry, and the opportunities for collaboration.
