Webinar: Advancing Demand Management in Resort Towns and Communities

Date: July 23, 2020
Time: 11:00 am to 12:15 pm ET
Cost: Free
Organization: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)
FHWA Office of Operations is currently providing information and assistance on the integration of emerging mobility into transportation management. Resort towns and communities face unique circumstances to manage transportation systems and fluctuating demands during peak seasons. Tourist and visitor travel have significant impacts on local businesses, employers, residents, and employees who live in the area or commute from outside the area. Emerging mobility and transportation demand management (TDM) strategies can help these communities meet the needs of all of their travelers.
Join this free FHWA-sponsored webinar to hear how resort towns and communities have implemented strategies to meet traveler expectations and reduce single-occupant vehicle (SOV).

by Marley Randazzo, USC, Masters of Urban Planning 2021

Tuesday, June 2nd, the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and the Pacific Southwest Region University Transportation Center (PSR) held the Traffic Trends and Safety in a COVID-19 World webinar. The event was the first partnership of its kind for both TRB and PSR. “We are delighted to be able to partner with TRB and share some of our PSR research on this timely topic,” said PSR director Dr. Genevieve Giuliano.

Amplifying the event on both organizations’ platforms and speaking to the high level of interest in planning in a post-COVID world, the webinar was extremely well-attended, drawing an audience of over 1,100 attendees. Event moderator Dr. Fraser Schilling, representing UC Davis’ Road Ecology Center, noted the current importance of academic research to the planning practice: “I think the size of the event spoke to how much these new traffic conditions are on peoples’ minds. It is a learning experience for everyone, from planners to traffic safety and operations.”
