Program

The meeting program covers all transportation modes, with sessions and workshops addressing topics of interest to policy makers, administrators, practitioners, researchers, and representatives of government, industry, and academic institutions. A number of sessions and workshops focus on the spotlight theme for the 2022 meeting: Innovating an Equitable, Resilient, Sustainable, and Safe Transportation System.

Workshops Announced: Details regarding specialty workshops are available online now. These workshops take place on the first and last day of the meeting. The full program, including full details on sessions and workshops, will be posted to this website in November.

TRB’s volunteer technical committees organize the sessions and workshops at the TRB Annual Meeting. They also hold their own committee meetings throughout the week of the meeting, and most are open to all Annual Meeting attendees. With more than 170 committees, almost every transportation mode and topic is represented. The full list of committee meetings will be posted to this website in November.
