Conference hotel rates are only available until August 24. Discounted airfares, ground transportation and car rentals are also available with select carriers.    

Centennial Special Events

Delegates, TAC members and industry stakeholders will enjoy special events celebrating the Association’s 100^th anniversary, including:

• The Transportation Showcase will be a museum-style exhibit themed on the Trans-Canada Highway.  ‘Exits’ along the highway will feature video, images and artifacts from cities and provinces across the country.  ‘Rest areas’ will highlight topics like road safety, bridges and tunnels, sustainable transportation, and more.  
• A 100^th anniversary video will premiere at the Opening Plenary on Monday, highlighting TAC’s evolution and role in Canadian transportation.
