RTA Leadership Briefing and Tours
RTA periodically hosts tours and field visits to bring business, elected, and transportation leaders from across the metropolitan Triangle together to learn about innovative mobility solutions, strategies, and lessons from a peer market. Each visit draws regionally for this high-impact opportunity to introduce new transportation practices that support our metropolitan economy and quality of life.
