Dear followers,

Besides being a network of enforcement, ROADPOL is also a network of knowledge and education. A very successful ROADPOL Masterclass was held in March and herein we've included a detailed report on it.

 

In other developments ROADPOL was proudly presented at the World Police Summit in Abu Dhabi. Find out what our President Volker Orben spoke of at the Police Leadership Panel there.

 

ROADPOL also had a keynote presence at the Road Safety Conference held by our partner, the European Association of Operators of Toll Road Infrastructures.
