1 CITY MAINTENANCE Goodwood Park Hotel, Singapore October 17-18, 2012

2 City Maintenance Creating a vibrant city: Planning and prioritising your city maintenance plans October 17-18, 2012 Goodwood Park Hotel, Singapore Do not try to make circumstances fit your plans. Make plans that fit the circumstances - General George Patton (1947) WHY YOU CANNOT MISS THIS EVENT Asian cities have seen rapid expansion and development over the past decade. This creates pressure on various city councils and their city engineers as they have the responsibility of ensuring their cities reflect the growing prowess of the Asian economy - robust, efficient and sustainable. Today's cities need to be safe and efficient, and that can only be achieved through properly structured maintenance planning and execution. No two cities are the same. Each has its own unique characteristics, yet the crux of a city - the infrastructure of roads, public spaces, public amenities, transportation, buildings and facade are globally recognisable. The challenge for city engineers can be categorised into: Cost, policy, capability, available technology, logistics, two-way community engagement and proper execution. City Maintenance by Trueventus on Oct in arguably one of the world's best maintained cities, Singapore, will be the definitive platform for city engineers and city planners in Asia to showcase their cities, exchange ideas and success stories to further ameliorate their respective cities. Join us and gain valuable insights into reengineering your city.
