Canada is proud to host the XXVIIIth World Road Congress in Vancouver, October 4-8, 2027. As a longstanding member of World Road Congress (PIARC), we look forward to welcoming the global road community and sharing experiences from across Canada’s diverse transportation network.

The Congress will bring together governments, researchers, industry and practitioners to exchange expertise and explore solutions to shared transportation challenges.

Momentum is building toward the Congress, with several opportunities to participate already underway. The Call for Papers is open until September 30, 2026, work on National Reports has begun, and organizations can now secure exhibition space to showcase their expertise on the international stage.

Congress registration is expected to open this fall. Visit the Congress website and sign up to stay informed of the latest news, updates and opportunities.

As Canada’s First Delegate to PIARC, I encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities and be part of the Congress.

I look forward to welcoming you to Vancouver in 2027.

Regards,
