Jan. 21, 2013 - PRLog -- Held at a central London location, the event brings key industry stakeholders together to examine the economic, environmental and planning considerations associated with rail freight.

PIE will be showcasing its revolutionary Freight Gateway, an online system launched in 2012 that allows Local Authorities to provide live map-based road information to freight operators.

“Having made real progress in developing public sector relationships last year, this conference will allow us to show councils how our technology helps them meet the demands of their Local Transport Plans,” said Freddie Talberg, CEO, PIE Mapping.
