*All Transportation Short Course sessions will take place on the Texas A&M campus — at the Rudder Theatre Complex and the Memorial Student Center.*
This year’s Transportation Short Course will be the 92nd such meeting in the Texas Department of Transportation’s history. Both TxDOT and the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) are proud of this long-standing record of collaboration and cooperation. Over the years, the Short Course has provided a unique opportunity to exchange important technical information that improves transportation in Texas. TxDOT planners and their TTI colleagues are developing an excellent program, and we are confident the conference will be of value to all who attend. TTI’s Event Management & Planning (EM&P) is available to answer questions at any time. We look forward to seeing you in October!
