At the Regional Transportation Alliance’s annual Solutions Forum on Aug. 23, you’ll hear about the evolution of transit in the Triangle and how an enhanced transit plan will impact our region.

Senior county officials and transportation professionals are focusing on how we travel throughout the Triangle. Our transit future may include additional local and regional buses, enhanced circulators, commuter rail, and light rail.

County managers from Wake, Durham, and Orange counties will provide an overview on the process and status of advancing a regional transit plan in each of their respective counties. There will also be an update on a possible Bus on Shoulders System (BOSS) pilot project on Interstate-40.
Featured speakers:

* Mike Ruffin, Durham County Manager
* Frank Clifton, Orange County Manager
* David Cooke, Wake County Manager
* Meredith McDiarmid, I-40 Corridor Executive, NC Department
of Transportation
