Municipal budgets are tight — and every mile of pavement needs to last longer than ever. At this year’s PAVE/X: The Pavement Experience, you and your team can learn proven strategies to extend the life of your roads, reduce callbacks, and make smarter long-term maintenance decisions.
In this video, PAVE/X Director of Programming, Jessica Lombardo, talks to State DOT Maintenance Contract Engineer Diane Calloway. Calloway and her team have attended the first two PAVE/X events and found incredible take home value for their agency. Watch to hear more.
Interested in attending? Sessions like Paving Best Practices, Basic Pavement Defects, and Choosing the Best Pavement Preservation Method give municipalities the tools to save money, improve safety, and stretch infrastructure dollars further.
Plus, outdoor equipment demos allow municipal leaders to compare machinery, crew workflows, and learn about the latest methods to help their departments succeed.
If your municipality wants pavement that performs better and lasts longer — PAVE/X is the place to be. Visit www.pavexshow.com to learn more.
✅ Sessions at PAVE/X That Municipalities Should Care About
Here are sessions from PAVE/X that align well with municipal needs (roads, public works, large-scale paving, maintenance, scheduling, regulations, etc.):
| Session | Why It Matters to Municipalities / Public Works Departments |
|---|---|
| Paving Best Practices: How to Get the Most Productivity & Profit from Every Job | Helps ensure high-quality, long-lasting work — critical for public infrastructure longevity and budget effectiveness. |
| Basic Pavement Defects: Causes, Solutions — and How to Set Your Price! | Identifies common pavement problems (cracks, potholes, surface failure) and shows proper repair methodology — valuable for municipalities managing streets, parking lots, and public infrastructure. |
| Choosing the Best Preservation Treatment Method — The Why, When & How | Offers guidance on maintenance and preservation — essential for municipalities aiming to extend pavement life and avoid costly full rehabs. |
| Introduction to Construction Sweeping | Municipalities often handle large lots, streets, and public properties — learning proper sweeping practices helps meet regulatory standards (e.g. stormwater run-off, local regulations) and maintain safety. |
| How Technology Improves Project Management | Do you need help implementing game-changing technology on your jobsite? This session will teach how technology can be used as a tool for project management and communication preconstruction, in the field, and post construction. |
| Next Level Preservation Treatments | If you’re looking for new ways to serve your customers and expand your business, consider investing in pavement preservation methods that your competitors aren’t offering. From mastics to road patchers, this session will cover what these next level preservation treatments are, where to use them and the pros and cons of each method. |
| Sessions on Job Costing, Estimating & Business Management | While more contractor-oriented, these are useful for municipal procurement teams or public works departments to understand cost structures, bidding, and contract evaluation. |
| Live Equipment Demonstrations / Outdoor Demo Sessions | Municipal decision-makers can evaluate paving equipment and contractors directly — useful when deciding whether to outsource projects or contract external firms. |
