SHAPING THE FUTURE, MOVING THE NOW

SEE YOU IN MEANJIN | BRISBANE

As transport professionals, we face the dual challenge of tackling today’s most pressing issues while preparing for the opportunities and uncertainties of tomorrow. 

Our theme in  2026, Shaping the future, moving the now, invites us to consider urgent challenges such as congestion, climate change, equity, and accessibility, while also exploring how shifting demographics and emerging technologies will transform the way we move and grow into the future.

This raises an important question: how can we, as a collective, work together to balance the diverse needs of current and future generations and deliver a transport network that serves all? Together, we can lay the foundations for a more connected, resilient, and sustainable transport system.

Through engaging presentations, robust panel discussions, and interactive workshops, #NTC2026 will explore how we can address the urgent needs of today while shaping the transport networks and public spaces that will carry us into the future.
