Register For "Preserving the Historic Road 2008"
Registration is now open for Preserving the Historic Road 2008 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, September 11-14. This year marks the tenth anniversary of the only conference dedicated to the identification, preservation and management of historic roads.

The four-day conference is structured around educational sessions, general sessions and field tours to historic roads’ sites. Conference sessions address issues of highway engineering and technology for historic roads, highway safety, historic preservation strategies, roadside history, and highway policy and management. A popular feature of the conference is the “Friday Movie Night” where vintage highway construction and training films are screened. The conference is designed to facilitate dialogue and debate among attendees, and generous opportunities are provided for conversation and information sharing.
