I had the privilege last week of presenting Beyond Traffic – Looking Forward to Innovation in an Era of Rapid Change, which served as the culmination of Beyond Traffic: DOT's 30 Year Framework . Two years ago, USDOT extended an invitation to the American public to open up and have a frank discussion about the shape, size and condition of our transportation network. Beyond Traffic enabled us to see – at a high level – how our system is working, where it is deficient and what it will take to meet the needs and goals of our nation for decades to come.

I delivered the presentation at the Transportation Research Board's Annual Meeting[external link]. This year's meeting – the Transportation Research Board's 96th –  once again succeeded in peeling back the layers of the intricate web of our nation's transportation system and addressing the need for transportation innovation. More than 13,000 transportation professionals from more than 70 countries came to see roughly 5,000 presentations and  800 sessions or workshops covering all modes of transportation.
