Apologies for cross postings: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 17th TRB Transportation Planning Applications Conference (TRBAppcon) is scheduled for June 2-5, 2019 in Portland, OR. In order to continue the tradition of success with this conference series, we are seeking your assistance in soliciting presentation abstracts to be considered for the conference program. Do you have something you're working on that your transportation planning peers might like to know about? Do you have an idea for a workshop or discussion panel on a particular topic? Perhaps you have a case study of a particular technique or planning application that would be well suited to a Case Study Discussion Panel? Are there tools that you or your colleagues would like to learn more about? Is your organization finding new ways to reflect the changing times in your long-range plans? Attached to this email, you will find the TRBAppcon2019 Call for Abstracts with details on possible topics, session types and submittal specifics. In an effort to assist you in your abstract considerations, we have created Abstract Submittal Guidelines which are attached as well. Please consider submitting an abstract and sharing the call with peers and other affinity groups you think might have an interest in participating. Please note, abstracts are due by midnight, September 7, 2018. Thank you for your continued support. Your participation is critical to conference success! Please accept my apologies if you've already received this notice. Hope to see you in Portland in 2019!
