This year’s Transportation Short Course will be the 95th such meeting in the Texas Department of Transportation’s history.
We are delighted to announce that this year’s Short Course will be both on-site and virtual! On-site attendance will be limited to allow for social distancing. All sessions will be streamed live to the virtual audience, and they will be recorded for viewing at a later time.
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.
