With the November/December edition of WesternITE we are launching a new feature of transportation information sharing called “WesternITE Roundup – knowing is half the battle”. This new column will highlight transportation information from two to three sections per issue rotating around District 6 in one year. Information is this column will highlight what is going on in a section/state/area regarding our profession that others might find interesting - from big projects to new funding, study findings to new analysis, academic projects to consultant studies, research to innovative products, good seminars or courses to key community activity members might be interested in. This is a wide gambit - but aimed at annually giving members a feel for the current transportation activities and projects of importance throughout the west. The Section President will have the responsibility to submit information - but all chapters and members are free to provide information to their Section President as they see fit. Don't be afraid - you can do a series of one sentence/one paragraph items or just a few – the value is in the sharing of current transportation information among our members. Emphasis will be on brevity – short facts and notes. Many thanks to Laurie Kozisek ( Alaska ), Sarath Joshua ( Arizona ) and Jeff Hereford ( Central Coast ) for jumping right into the fray in this issue. Here is the annual schedule of WesternITE issues assigned to sections for the coming year with the deadlines for publication in parenthesis:
- Nov/Dec: Arizona , Alaska & CA Central Coast (Sept 25)
- Jan/Feb: Colorado-Wyoming, Oregon & Central California (Nov 25)
