Future Cities & Transport UK 2026 is the national summit uniting leaders, innovators, policymakers, investors, and city builders to redefine what thriving, equitable, and future-ready urban environments look like. We’ll explore how integrated planning, smart mobility, resilient infrastructure, and targeted investment can deliver cleaner cities, better transport networks, and economic growth across the UK.

Taking place in the heart of Liverpool, this event brings together the thinkers, doers and capital-holders shaping future cities and transport systems fit for the next decade of growth and climate challenge.

Three Stages Driving UK Growth.

Mobility – Transport Systems Driving Regional Growth

Explore how transport networks are being redesigned to support economic growth, regional connectivity and industrial development. From rail, freight and ports to integrated mass transit and digital mobility systems, this stage brings together transport authorities, operators, infrastructure leaders and policymakers shaping the UK’s future transport economy.

Infrastructure – Building the Foundations for Growth

This stage focuses on the infrastructure, built environment and delivery systems required to support long-term economic growth. From energy systems and industrial sites to large-scale development and construction capacity, discussions centre on how projects are delivered at scale, how places are developed and how infrastructure enables industry, investment and job creation.

Investment & Finance – Capital, Policy & Partnerships

Connect the dots between capital and place-based opportunity. Dive into investment trends shaping transport, infrastructure and urban regeneration; understand how public policy and private finance can work together to unlock scalable projects, smarter assets and long-term value creation.
