2019 Northeast Texas Transportation Summit
October 30 @ 8:30 am - 1:00 pm
The Northeast Texas Transportation Summit presents a unique opportunity for chief stakeholders throughout the region to work together on critical transportation issues. Business and industry leaders, City Council members, Commissioners Court members and staff from fourteen (14) counties will come together to improve communication and transportation planning efforts. Leaders desire to understand the role that freight shipping by truck, rail, and air plays in each of their communities, and where passenger rail may also be needed. Without necessary changes and improvements to its transportation systems, northeast Texas will continue to face costly challenges in the areas of business, economic and community development.
Keynote Speaker: Vence Haggard, Federal Railroad Administration
