The Transportation Research Board’s Urban Freight Transportation Committee (AT025) is concerned with the study and research of urban freight transportation topics and issues, including urban transportation system demand and economic relationships, right-of-way issues, pick-up and delivery needs, terminal transportation needs, institutional challenges, and new technology, with an emphasis on providing support to practitioners.
In spite of nearly a foot of snow and a partial government shutdown, the TRB Annual Meeting was packed with informative workshops, sessions and meetings. Look here for photographs from many of our sponsored activities featuring Urban Freight Transportation Committee members and friends.
Make plans now to join us for our mid-year committee meeting on the west coast. We will meet on Monday, April 8th, prior to the Innovations in Freight Data Workshop being held at the Beckman Center in Irvine, California. I hope to see many of you in Southern California!
Finally, I encourage you to join me in Celebrating TRB’s 100th Anniversary by contributing to the TRB Century Club! More information is available here.
And remember, becoming a friend of our committee is as simple as going to www.mytrb.org, creating an account and clicking on our committee to become a friend. You will then receive my direct emails alerting you of our latest Urban Freight Transportation Committee news!
Thanks, and have a great day!
