About the Events

Innovation and Learning Festival
This unique festival is dedicated to showcasing the latest advancements in road maintenance and cutting-edge transport technology.
With live demonstrations, technical training sessions and facilitated workshops, the event focuses on innovation, learning, and collaboration, providing the perfect platform for local authorities, supply chain partners, and industry professionals to come together and explore the future of highways.
Strictly Highways
Our flagship annual conference, networking event, and awards ceremony brings together the whole highways community to celebrate the exceptional work taking place in our sector. Strictly Highways provides an opportunity to learn about new innovations and technologies, share experiences, receive updates from the Department for Transport (DfT), and network with peers across the industry.
Fully Funded for Local Authorities
Both of these events are fully funded for local authorities, allowing our council members to attend, engage, and gain valuable insights at no cost. This funding demonstrates LCRIG’s commitment to supporting and empowering local authority teams as they drive innovation and best practices within the highways sector.
