Mobile Workshops

Get ready to step beyond the conference room and experience transportation in action. The 2026 Safe Roads Summit is offering eight exclusive mobile workshops that provide rare, behind-the-scenes access to projects, facilities, and systems you don’t normally get to see. These immersive experiences will take you inside iconic infrastructure, major destinations, and real-world operations by connecting big ideas to practical solutions you can take home and apply in your own community.

Note: Mobile Workshops will be held in the afternoon on Wednesday, February 25, 2026. Please note that mobile workshops will take place at the same time as the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) workshop as well as other breakout sessions.
