The BYDA Utility Safety Conference will take place from 4 to 5 March, 2026 at the RACV Club, Melbourne. This conference is where Australia’s utility, construction and geospatial sectors come together to share knowledge, challenge old ways of working, and explore new ideas that make the industry safer and smarter.
On show will be BYDA’s Digital Utility Portal, which is moving from proof-of-concept into the next phase of development. The portal is showing how digital data sharing can dramatically reduce manual rework, improve accuracy, and give planners and engineers the real-time insight they need to prevent strikes.
