For more than 30 years transportation planners, modelers, and analysts from across the world have come together biennially to share expertise, experiences and to discuss challenges and successes in transportation planning.
Held in various locations across the US, the conference has consistently attracted professionals from the public and private sectors, representing multiple disciplines. This conference is the “place to be” to learn about real-world applications, with tangible benefits for real-world decision making. The virtual setting expands access to all, sharing information from state, regional, MPO, city and rural practitioners.
