Please find below a list of the sessions and events sponsored or co-sponsored by the ADD40 Committee during the 2019 TRB Annual Meeting. The ADD40 committee, subcommittee, and joint-subcommittee meetings are highlighted in orange.
ADD40 needs 5 volunteers to attend sustainability-related technical sessions during the conference and then help facilitate small group discussions and report outs at Thursday morning’s Session 1792 – Sustainability Next Steps: Sharing Information and Trends from the 2019 Annual Meeting and Identifying Next Steps for Research. One of our objectives is to consider refinements to the ADD40 definition of sustainable transportation as a system that meets present needs without compromising the needs of the future.
