Don’t be left out! At this event, work with leaders to make a difference on how YOUR area is impacted. It is your call to bring about change for your region!

This is a must attend event for anyone working in transportation! It is an opportunity to learn and develop your own strategies and solutions that you can benefit from. This is your opportunity to bring about change and innovation where it is needed the most.

Why Atlanta and it’s surrounding region?

  • Metropolitan Atlanta, and its surrounding regions has major bottlenecks compared to other regions
  • Congestion in Metropolitan Atlanta affects the movement of goods as the region is crisscrossed by 13 freeways
  • Influx of population is outpacing transportation infrastructure
  • Suburb growth in Metropolitan Atlanta is outpacing city development with 90% of commuters driving to work
  • The downtown connector sees close to 1⁄2 a million cars daily
  • Atlanta is home to one of the world’s busiest airports, with high passenger and aircraft traffic

…….Why now?

The economic, environmental, and social implications of gridlock are enormous. This conference will deliver solutions on:

  • Overcoming funding limitations through engaging and timely discussions
  • Developing integrated transportation solutions
  • Establishing a workable governance system that includes land use issues
  • How Atlanta can model best practices from international and national case studies that demonstrate integration and cohesive partnering and funding strategies

…….And why you should be there?

With more decisions being made around the movement of goods, there is a call for higher cooperation from all key decision makers. It is YOUR obligation to be there to create workable solutions for the Atlanta Metropolitan Area and surrounding regions.

True to the theme of creating solutions, we have brought you related case studies that will bring added value

Featured Case Studies include:

 
  • Atlanta Regional Commission
  • Berlin-Brandenburg Transportation
    Authority, Germany
  • Buckhead Community Improvement District
  • City of Toronto, Canada
  • Dallas Area Rapid Transit
  • Georgia Regional Transit Authority
  • Georgia Department of Transportation
  • Manatee County Area Transit, Florida
  • City of Montreal, Canada
 

Several great initiatives are underway, and with increased dialogue, we will create more cooperation between the Atlanta Area and its surrounding regions to achieve:

  • A reduction in the number of cars on the road
  • Increased transit ridership
  • Improved land density plans to sustain ridership
  • More alternative and flexible modes of transportation offered
