Civil Works Action at Victorian Expo

Civil Works Expo 2012 at Lardner Park is more than just a trade show!

THOUSANDS of patrons will att end the three-day event in February, to see and operate the millions of dollars of equipment showcased.

Retaining its position as the premier industry exhibition of its type in Victoria, the Civil Works Expo is specifically tailored for the growing civil construction industry, and incorporates the ever popular Trucks in Action event.

Civil Works Expo is held from Thursday 16 to Saturday 18 February 2012, at Lardner Park near Warragul, just east of Melbourne. All aspects of equipment and services relevant to the civil construction, quarrying and public works sector, and the associated industries will be on display.

The event is set to transform the rolling green paddocks into a virtual work site, with the most comprehensive range of options being both showcased and demonstrated in one place. For an industry that owns some 40,000 items of plant and equipment, the Expo provides a cost-effective way to demonstrate and compare machinery.

The Expo has a proud tradition of being a pivotal date in the industry calendar. “The Lardner Park Civil Works Expo will be the key Victorian civil construction trade event for 2012,” said Mr Cullino, the CEO (Victoria) Civil Contractors.

There are both static and interactive exhibits at the 2012 Civil Works Expo. The popular machinery demonstration area, again sponsored by Saferoads, allows prospective purchasers to “trial before you buy” on a large range of popular machines such as excavators, skid steers & backhoes, within three areas fully enclosed with safety barriers. There are also a number of exhibitors such as Case & Super groups (with the Kubota brand) where you can trial machines on their individual sites.

The Trucks In Action component of the Expo has its own Pit-Lane at Lardner Park, for the huge array of trucks of all sizes and makes, determined to prove they have the performance to match their shiny duco. The winning format continues today, putting trucks and trucking equipment to the test under typical load and road conditions.

Prospective buyers can choose from a range of trucks supplied by leading manufacturers, and join the driver around a 9 km test route.

The 2012 Civil Works Expo is again supported and endorsed by key industry bodies, including the Civil Contractors Federation, Municipal Works Officers Association, Institute of Public Works Engineering, Construction Materials Processers Association and the Road Marking Industry Association of Australia.

Industry seminars and luncheons are popular events during the three-day Expo program. An impressive range of interesting and entertaining seminars & luncheons will take place in the new Lardner Park Exhibition Centre during each day of the event.

Both exhibitors and visitors alike highly regard the Civil Works Expo and recognise the event as a valuable opportunity to assist in making informed purchasing as well as renewing or establishing contacts and sharing industry information.
