SUMMARY:Argus Africa Roads 2018
DESCRIPTION:The east African infrastructure industry is currently growing exponentially\, with investments in roads\, corridors and highways projects. As a result\, it boasts huge potential for the global and regional infrastructure groups\, bitumen and asphalt suppliers\, and project owners. \nWith Kenya and Tanzania having the advantage of ports and access to landlocked countries\, the need for efficient and safe road infrastructure is vigorous\, given that 90pc of trade across Africa is by sea. \nThe premier Argus Africa Roads conference and exhibition\, 6-8 March 2018\, will bring together influential decision-makers from global and regional road construction groups\, road authorities\, contractors\, institutional investors\, asphalt and bitumen producers and  traders\, as well as leading market analysts and innovative product and service providers to debate and strategise requirements for road safety\, PPP models\, project updates on east Africa’s major road and highway developments\, and how to position your organisation to maximise profits.
