Disruptive tech concerns for DOTs panel #TRB2019 By 2020, Utah has to implement a voluntary road usage program for EVs. Not a pilot, a real program. They also have a transit fund and a stand-alone bike and pedestrian trail fund.
Have you heard of our #EndTheStreakTX campaign? How’s this for a sobering gulp moment: More than 66,000 deaths on #Texas highways over the last nearly two decades. Half of those involved people not wearing seatbelts. Let’s all do our part to reverse this trend. #TTF2019#safety
Waco District Engineer Stan Swiatek talks how everyone can get even better on safety, encourage others and yourself to improve from “supposed to” to “believe and want to” #EndTheStreakTX@TxDOT Waco safety banquet, exceptional day!
@JayCrossley@VisionZeroTexas Every day for the last 18 years at least one person has died on Texas roads. The average is 10 people per day. I don’t want 10 people to die on Texas roads every day. @TxDOT#EndTheStreakTX
