Next week marks the observance of the annual National Transportation Week. This year is the seventy-fifth observance of this event. To celebrate, please encourage your sections and chapters to recognize this week with events to raise the awareness of transportation in our world. There is a National Transportation Week website (http://www.ntweek.org/). Check it out. Print out the poster from the website, and post it at your place of work.
Also, please consider proclaiming the observance of National Transportation Week (see ITE's sample proclamation). Post your proclamation on your section's website, or read it at an upcoming section or chapter meeting. If you are involved in public agencies, consider having your elected board issue a similar proclamation commemorating the week.
Our livelihoods are based on transportation. Let's celebrate, but also look for ways to increase mobility, safety, and funding for transportation initiatives into the future.
