Brunch deadline is approaching
If you are looking for a great way to learn, meet new colleagues and catch-up with friends, you could do worse than to register for your included tickets to our annual RTA 2026 Transportation Brunch event, which will be held on Friday morning, August 7, at the Westin RDU Airport hotel.
While one or more tickets are included with your RTA membership, we are approaching venue capacity, so I urge you to register today.
Last year’s event sold out, so reserve your seats today. Contact Alea Morales to register, and reach out to Jacob Rigg with any other questions about the event.
We came, we saw, we learned, and we grew, together
This week, more than 50 members of the RTA business coalition and several of our partners traveled together to the Annapolis and suburban Maryland area for our RTA 2026 Leadership Briefing and Tour event.
Led by honorary Maryland tour co-chairs Julie White, NCDOT Deputy Secretary for Multimodal Transportation, and NCDOT chief engineer Patrick Norman, we spent 27 hours on Monday and Tuesday of this week in a “tour de transportation.”
This week’s blog provides an extensive recap of the trip. Thank you to our tour sponsors Amgen and the Research Triangle Foundation of North Carolina (both Omnia Gold members) as well as HDR, Kimley-Horn, WSP, City of Raleigh, GoTriangle, and NCDOT.
Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support of regional business leadership on transportation.
Let’s get moving,
Joe Milazzo II, PE
RTA executive director
