Dear CTPP community,

Through the generous support of SHRP2, we are pleased to announce that travel assistance will be available to public agency staff and qualifying students for the 14th TRB National Transportation Planning Applications Conference.  Applications for support are now available on the conference website (www.trbappcon.org) and must be submitted by April 1.  Please accept our apologies for the short notice and for any cross-posting. 

Also, please note that the deadline for early bird registration ends April 10^th and our block of rooms at the hotel is filling up quickly.  We encourage everyone interested to register for the conference and make their hotel and travel reservations soon. 

For any of you who may not be familiar with the conference, the applications conference aims to provide an outlet for new transportation planning techniques and methods emphasizing practical, innovative and timely technical and policy approaches to transportation planning through professional presentations and workshops over the course of 5 days. The conference will be held in Columbus, Ohio, May 5-9, 2013.  See the conference website (www.trbappcon.org) for more details. 

We hope, especially with the help of the travel assistance, to see many of you in Columbus!

Best,

Vince Bernardin

Conference Chair
