This Challenge is designed to give future leaders in transportation a social and professional development boost early in the year, through different focused activities each week. The first week of the Challenge kicks off with the virtual Career Fair! We will enter participants who complete the final Challenge questionnaire into a drawing to win a free year of TRB webinars.

Urban Data Committee (AED20) Supplemental Virtual Meeting - Feb 4, 3-4 PM Eastern

by Fontaine, Michael

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is doing well and recovered from TRB. We have set a date/time for the supplemental virtual Urban Data committee meeting on Feb 4 from 3-4 PM Eastern. Committee members should have received a calendar invitation. For everyone else, the Zoom login information is included in the attached agenda. FHWA has also provided a summary of relevant research activities, which is also attached. This meeting will be a refocused and streamlined version of what we did in person at the Annual Meeting. The main objectives will be to discuss several items where I would like input from the entire committee (TSP, research needs, equity working group) and to hear updates from people who were unable to be in Washington, DC. I hope many of you will be able to join us! Mike [image: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/DtP82ojGpV6eQOpgom6_13nj_2taODCojrCDBxmIB…] Michael D.
