RA Industry Lunch | Productivity with Jason Spears and Amri Denton | 2025 (MEL)

The focus on boosting industry productivity and improving culture at our recent Transforming Transport Summit struck a chord with many Roads Australia members.

We’re excited to continue the conversation on Thursday 15 May in Melbourne, as we bring together government and industry leaders to address the productivity challenge.

Join us for a timely and important discussion on how our industry can better manage risk, unlock innovation and deliver high-quality infrastructure for Victoria's growing communities. 

Hear from:
