AfPA and AustStab are proud to co-host the Regional Road Forum 2026 — a two-day forum focused on strengthening maintenance and rehabilitation strategies for local and regional roads across Toowoomba and Townsville.

  • Toowoomba: 29 – 30 April 2026
  • Townsville: 06 – 07 May 2026

This event is essential for professionals working to address today’s complex road infrastructure challenges with innovative, evidence-based solutions. The Regional Road Forum brings together councils, state road authorities, contractors, consultants and suppliers to advance constructable, cost-effective approaches across:

  • Routine and reactive maintenance programs
  • Pavement rehabilitation and life-extension works
  • Pavement recycling and reuse of in-situ materials
  • Stabilisation techniques that improve performance, resilience and whole-of-life value

Sponsoring the Regional Road Forum 2026 puts your brand in front of a highly targeted, decision-making audience — and positions your organisation at the centre of one of the most focused road maintenance forums in the country.

Sponsorship opportunities are limited. Secure your sponsorship for the Toowoomba event [HERE], or for the Townsville event [HERE].

  • Visibility with engineers and asset managers who influence specifications and procurement decisions
