Presentations will take place at the TRB 91st Annual Meeting, which will take place in Washington, DC, on January 22-26, 2012. The meeting attracts 11,000 transportation professionals from around the world with more than 4,000 presentations in nearly 650 sessions and workshops covering all transportation modes and addressing topics of interest to all attendees—policy makers, administrators, practitioners, researchers, and representatives of government, industry, and academic institutions.
