Attn: Registered and Prospective Attendees, Sponsors, and Vendors of the New Mexico Transportation and Construction Conference [NM TransCon]:

NM TransCon 2020, initially rescheduled from April to August 26-28, 2020 has been canceled. Attendee registrations, sponsorships, and vendor packages will be refunded.

In early June, the College of Engineering at New Mexico State University revisited the August preparations with the NM TransCon Steering Committee to include the New Mexico Department of Transportation and Las Cruces Convention Center administration. The remaining uncertainties associated with COVID-19, such as, potential capacity restrictions and limited food service for an August event, prompted the 2020 conference cancellation. If you made hotel reservations for the August dates, please reach out to your hotel.
