ARTSA Modification and Innovation Conference 2017
The Modifications and Innovation conference was organised by ARTSA in conjunction with the CVIAV and CVIAA with VACC providing their facilities for the event. Trailer and PrimeMover Magazine were media partners and will be reporting on the event and also printing a wall chart to assist with understanding of the Modifications Code in future editions.
The conference was designed to gather feedback for the review of the Modifications (VSB6) Code being undertaken by the NHVR. Over 130 people attended, many of whom are AVE’s and who work with this Code on a daily basis. Their practical knowledge is immense and was the key to ensuring many productive discussions. The event was very successful in engaging with the Regulator and a series of feedback suggestions will flow from this engagement. Below are papers presented at the conference and a photo gallery of the event.
