Thursday, April 2, 2015

The Transportation Association of Canada (TAC) has endorsed the promotion of the 5th International Symposium on Highway Geometric Design, June 22-24 in Vancouver, BC.

Co-hosted by the Transportation Research Board, the University of British Columbia and Transoft Solutions Inc., this year's theme is Safe and Efficient Design for the 21st Century.

Held every five years, the event aims to encourage the continuous improvement of highway geometric design. It focuses on the latest breakthrough practices relating to highway engineering in their different life phases, including daily operational effects and safe highway designs.

Informative podium sessions on geometric design issues throughout the world, as well as reports featuring recent developments in road design, policy and practices, technical software demos, design and research products will be offered. Technical tours of local highway design and construction practices are also scheduled to take place.

Historically the event has attracted about 300 delegates however organizers have received almost double the number of abstracts than previous symposiums.

Registration, technical program and additional symposium details can be found on the Symposium website.
