Delft Reunion

A total of ten (out of 20) alumni, as well as course originator Peter Koonce, of the Delft summer course met for a reunion on October 10, 2013. It was great to see everyone and hear about how the experience was transformative. The course will happen again from June 28-July 11, 2014! Let's continue the tradition!

PSU Students in Action

Today Katie Bell successfully defended her master's thesis, "Identification and Characterization of PM2.5 and VOC Hot Spots on an Urban Arterial Corridor Integrating Probe Vehicle, Traffic and Land Use Data." Also our student group STEP held their opening social event to welcome new transportation students! It looks like a great group and a terrific start to a new academic year!

ODOT Intermodal Leadership Forum

I was honored to have the opportunity to be a pre-session speaker, along with Galen McGill, at the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) 2013 Intermodal Leadership Forum. Galen talked about the many exciting ITS projects underway in Oregon, and I presented a "Vision for a Connected Transportation Future for All Users." There was some great discussion and conversation about the future of transportation.

TR News

The latest issue of TR News reminded me of the new attendees session held every year on Sunday - highly recommended!
