2019 Conference

The 2019 Southeastern States Pavement Conference was held October 9-11 in Louisville, Kentucky. Information on future conferences will be posted here as it becomes available.

This conference provides a regional forum for pavement professionals from State Agencies, Academia, Local and Federal Governmental offices, and Industry to share information and identify common issues related to pavement management and pavement design. Participants will have the opportunity to explore important issues impacting pavement construction cost, pavement life, and strategies to manage pavement networks.
