Brantford's Wheels on the Pavement event provides a chance for attendees to speak to skilled workers and explore a diverse range of municipal, Emergency Services and local business’ vehicles.

From big rigs to service vehicles used in day-to-day operations, attendees can see, touch and learn all about vehicles that help support our community and speak with the skilled workers that operate them. Community Partner booths will be on-site to provide valuable information and delicious food will also be available for purchase.
