The 2009 IPWEA NSW Annual Conference was again an immense success offering a full array of pertinent papers and an excellent opportunity to keep abreast of the engineering industry at Local Government level.
The IPWEA conference ran in conjunction with the Roads Congress and the Road Safety Officers Forum, and for the first time, celebrated the Streets Opening Conference Centenary with great accomplishment.
The business program was accompanied by an exciting social program with the welcome
drinks, the Engineering Excellence Awards dinner, a wine and cheese tasting and a fun night on a Sydney cruise harbour. We would like to thank all our participants from New South Wales and beyond who supported our conference in 2009. It is only with your continued support that our NSW conference can grow and develop.
