The transportation community was invited to a webinar on Wednesday, October 16, 2019 from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM. This webinar is the first in a collaborative series between TRB, FHWA, and AASHTO. It discussed recent developments in tunnel management practices and provided announcements from tunnel-related organizations. The webinar discussed the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel Expansion in Virginia, focusing on how the project’s design-build procurement was structured to maximize value-generating innovation over risk-taking.
This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Tunnels and Underground Structures.
The slides are available. Contact Reggie Gillum for a copy of the recording.
