Hanson exhibiting at this year's Highways UK event

Hanson’s Asphalt and Contracting division is exhibiting at this year’s Highways UK event, which is being held at the NEC in Birmingham on November 8 and 9.

Representatives will be on hand on stand E04 to discuss the company’s asphalt supply and lay capabilities and experience as well as its innovative approaches. These include Hanson’s award-winning iPave tool; ‘moving floor’ vehicles to enhance the company’s delivery fleet; and high-quality, sustainable solutions for all surfacing applications.

Karen Wright, Hanson’s learning and development manager, will also be joining a panel talking about skills at 2.15pm on the second day (November 9). The session, held in the Jacobs Theatre, is entitled ‘broadening the pool, increasing employee opportunities and developing talent’. Karen will focus on our Leadership, Education and Development (LEAD) programme; a higher management apprenticeship programme aimed at school leavers looking to learn and develop supervisory skills in a hands-on environment.
