List of Posters
The posters listed below will be available for display and presentation throughout the day around the atrium within the US DOT HQ, where the FoT Summit will be held.
The posters are sorted by the name of the UTC presenting the poster. Posters from both the FAST Act UTCs and the BIL UTCs are listed together. A map depicting the physical layout of the poster locations will be available at the Summit registration desk.
Note: Each individual poster will be displayed and presented during only ONE day of the Summit. So, the mix of posters will change on a daily basis across all three days. Enjoy.
Poster presenters: Please contact your UTC Director for guidance on which day of the Summit (s)he would like your poster to be presented. The decision is left to the discretion of your UTC Director.
