The impressive Deansgate headquarters of Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce has been named as the venue for an eagerly anticipated light rail event in September.

UKTram is now inviting professionals from across the sector to take part in its next Light Rail Summit, which aims to build on the success of a similar event in Edinburgh last year.

Details of guest speakers at this year’s event – which takes place on September 15 with a theme of Building Better – will be announced over coming months, along with a packed agenda of ‘hot topics’ for discussion.

Further information, including booking details, are available by emailing lorraineGeorge@uktram.co.uk.
