XXVII World Road Congress
The World Road Congress is a world-class event that builds on decades of PIARC experience. It brings together road experts and practitioners from across the globe. This will be the 27th edition of the World Road Congress, which PIARC has organised every four years since 1908.
This Congress represents a unique opportunity to discuss in depth all subjects related to road infrastructures and road transport. The XXVII Congress in 2023 will be held in-person and will mark a new chapter after the peak of the pandemic, which is why this year’s theme is « Together on the road again ».
