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.



The Online Program enables you to view descriptions of all lectern sessions, poster sessions, workshops, committee meetings, and special events. You can browse by topic, search by keyword, or filter for specific dates or event types. In addition, once you've registered for the meeting, you can sign in to create your own personal itinerary, track PDHs for sessions and workshops attended, and (after the meeting) view many of the visual aid presentations.

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.
