TRB Annual Meeting is also "fun"

Despite being busy and tiring, the TRB Annual Meeting (this was my 22nd I believe) is also a place where it's possible to connect with friends, colleagues, classmates, and leaders in the transportation arena. I especially enjoyed seeing former students Meead Saberi and Wei Feng (photo courtesy of NUTC); Wei gave an excellent presentation on a paper based on his dissertation. Also Matthew Downey presented his poster on joint work evaluating a variable speed limit system in Oregon. I also got to visit the Lincoln Memorial and go for a spin on Capital Bikeshare on a sunny cold day. It's always wonderful to visit Washington, D.C., and TRB is a recharging/refreshing time every year!
