The Southwest Concrete Pavement Association (SWCPA) is hosting the 2026 California Concrete Pavement Conference, bringing together industry leaders, engineers, and researchers to explore the latest innovations in concrete pavement technology. The two-day event features expert presentations, hands-on demonstrations, and networking opportunities focused on maximizing pavement performance and value.

Day One kicks off with keynote addresses from Caltrans leadership and national concrete pavement experts, followed by sessions on optimizing rehabilitation investments and next-generation concrete mix designs using blended cements and supplementary cementitious materials. Attendees will learn about workforce training resources, upcoming California concrete projects, and critical quality control procedures for paving operations. The day concludes with the prestigious SWCPA EPIC Awards recognizing outstanding concrete project teams.

Day Two features an exclusive open house at the UC Pavement Research Center (UCPRC), where attendees can witness live demonstrations, explore cutting-edge research projects, and tour the FHWA Mobile Concrete Technology Center (MCTC). This hands-on experience offers a unique opportunity to see pavement research and innovation in action while connecting directly with researchers and practitioners.

Whether you're seeking technical knowledge, networking opportunities, or insights into California's concrete pavement future, this conference delivers valuable resources for transportation professionals committed to building better infrastructure.
