First World Demolition Summit 2017 Conference Speaker Revealed

The first speaker attending the World Demolition Summit 2017 has been confirmed as Ryan Priestly of Priestly Demolition.

You may remember Ryan's company was voted "Best of the Best" in last year's World Demolition Awards, and they also won the Civils Demolition Award. The presentation Ryan will give during WDS 2017 is about the removal of the Nipigon River Bridge on the Trans Canada Highway. It's sure to be a fascinating listen.

As D&RI reports:

"He will discuss the challenges involved in removing the original narrow two-lane structure during sub-zero temperatures in a remote part of the country, and how Priestly came up with a solution to the apparently intractable problem."

If you would like to attend the World Demolition Summit this year, there's still plenty of time to arrange tickets, transport, and even accommodation. WDS 2017 takes place on November 2nd at the Millennium Gloucester Hotel in London. For more details visit the Demolition Summit website.
