The ECR team is extremely pleased to be named as the first-place winner, in the Excellence in Technology category, for the 18th Annual National Transport Awards at the Westminster Park Plaza in London. We would like to extend our congratulations to JustPark, Predictive Availability for parking who were recognised as highly commended in the Excellence in Technology category.

The event itself was hosted by Broadcaster and Presenter, Jeremy Vine, and many of the awards were sponsored by major players in the transport field, including National Express and Heathrow Airport.
