Come to Vancouver
It is with great enthusiasm that I invite you to join your fellow ITE colleagues in
Vancouver, BC, Canada. Vancouver’s beauty and diversity captured the world’s attention
during the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. I cannot think of a better cosmopolitan venue to bring people together internationally as ITE celebrates its 80th anniversary.
Vancouver provides impressive examples of multimodalism, and its innovative programs in the areas of sustainability, accessibility and livability are renowned. Vancouver’s transportation plan demonstrates many of ITE’s core focus areas, as its roadway solutions include traffic signal system upgrades, walking and bicycling
enhancements and safety and transit investments. The meeting will provide attendees
not only with the opportunity to learn about the city’s Olympic transportation plans and witness the
infrastructure erected to support them, but also to
experience the city’s cutting-edge advances in safety and green modes of transportation.
Take this opportunity to learn from a diverse gathering
of transportation individuals from around the world,
working together to solve 21st century challenges that we face as a community of transportation professionals.
I look forward to seeing you in the City of Vancouver this August.
