Happy New Year! In today's TRB e-newsletter there was some exciting news. TRB announced its new realignment and Health has a seat at the table as the committee on Transportation and Public Health (AME70). It is located under the new Transportation and Society (AME00) section which is under the new Sustainability and Resilience Group (AM000). As to any of the specifics I am assuming that we will hear more at the Annual Meeting in two weeks. Our meeting will be Monday afternoon, January 13 at 3:45. The meeting is open to public and the agenda is attached. ---------------------------------- TRB announces a major strategic realignment of its volunteer structure In an effort to ensure that the talent of TRB’s thousands of volunteers can best focus on 21st century critical and emerging transportation issues, the Technical Activities Council and Technical Activities Division of TRB are announcing a new volunteer structure. TRB is positioning itself to be the premier source of ideas, knowledge, and innovations. A key part of this effort is a review and strategic alignment of the organization's standing technical committees. More information about the new structure and other resources, included an introductory letter and Frequently Asked Questions, can be found here. http://www.trb.org/AboutTRB/TADStrategicAlignment.aspx -- Ed Christopher Transportation Planning Consultant 708-269-5237
