Hampton Roads

Welcome to the Hampton Roads area of the SMPS Virginia Chapter!

Hampton Roads is a rapidly growing hub of infrastructure, military activity and seasonal recreation. Spanning an area from the Virginia Beach coast inland to Colonial Williamsburg with all the rivers, wetlands and tributaries in between, the Hampton Roads area is home to some of the most delicate eco-systems and diverse terrain. Construction projects include coastline naval bases, railway from the Port of Norfolk, high rise and hotel expansions, maintenance of environmentally protected areas and maintenance of several tunnels to accommodate heavy seasonal traffic.

Once home to military folks, retirees and college students, the Hampton Roads area has become a destination for people of all ages in all types of industries. The area’s many large meeting spaces regular hosts conventions and seminars featuring industries from around the world. SMPS Virginia holds events in rotating locations across the Hampton Roads region, so you won’t always be on the wrong side of the tunnel! We hope to see you at an event very soon!
