Three powerhouse events, one unforgettable experience.

The ASCE Transportation and Development Institute (T&DI), in partnership with the Michigan Department of Transportation, is proud to bring together three premier conferences under one roof: 

  • International Conference on Transportation & Development (ICTD)
  • International Airfield and Highway Pavements Conference (Pavements)
  • International Conference on Automated People Movers and Automated Transit Systems (APM-ATS)

This unique event will gather experts and professionals from across the transportation and development, airfield and highway pavements, and APM and ATS sectors. Attendees will have a unique opportunity to network, share insights, and collaborate with global leaders, including researchers, system operators, project and construction managers, consultants, contractors, and academics working to advance transportation systems worldwide.
