ABOUT THIS CONFERENCE

Returning to Vancouver, the Urban Transit Infrastructure Symposium, Western Canada brings together senior transit leaders from Western Canada and across the country to discuss hot-button issues, network and share their expertise on this rapidly growing industry.

Creating more efficient and sustainable transit networks is the key to addressing the ongoing issue of congestion in Canada’s urban centres. Fueled by a surge of government investments in recent years, the focus is on building, expanding, and maintaining these systems to seamlessly connect communities, reduce carbon emissions and contribute to long-term prosperity.

This event features a carefully selected line-up of project owners, managers, contractors, consultants, and other stakeholders, giving you direct access to key market players involved in the procurement, design, construction, and operation of major transit projects.

Ensure you’re informed on the opportunities and challenges facing this rapidly expanding sector and ways that you can recover and restart your transit planning and navigate the ‘new normal’.
