Table Topics Roundtables, Card Exchange and Networking 2

• This track will allow the attendees to participate in focused discussions on some of the major issues in surface transportation that are outlined below. Each attendee coming to this track will be asked to pre-register for their preferred topic so there is room for them at the table. They will also be asked to submit, in advance, their two most important issues that they wish the group to discuss during the track. A list of these questions will be posted in a future update of this agenda. A subject matter expert will lead each roundtable discussion. A business card exchange will take place and there will be time for networking at the end of each session. A discussion of each of these topics will take place in separate rooms.
