WASHTO Emergency Response Peer Summit and WASHTO Committee on Maintenance Conference at the Omni Hotel in Fort Worth, Texas from April 6-10,2026.

Two conferences. One destination. One powerful exchange of ideas.

The Western Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (WASHTO) Emergency Response Peer Summit and the WASHTO Committee on Maintenance Conference are being held back-to-back, creating a unique opportunity for state DOT leaders, practitioners, and industry partners to come together for an in-depth, solution-focused experience.

Together, these conferences deliver a comprehensive look at how agencies prepare for, respond to, and recover from incidents and events, while also maintaining safe, reliable, and resilient transportation systems every day.
