Joint NCSITE-VASITE Webinar
December 17, 2024 @ 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm
NCSITE and VASITE are pleased to announce a free joint webinar on December 17 from 3:00 to 4:30 pm to round out your learning agenda for 2024.
Our plan is to offer a speaker and a topic from each state on what they do really well.
From Virginia, the topic will be highway safety and the speaker will be Stephen Read, PE, leader of the Virginia Highway Safety Improvement Programs in the Traffic Operations Division of VDOT. Virginia has a relatively low highway fatality rate compared to surrounding and peer states, and Stephen will describe some of the policies and programs that help keep that rate low. Stephen has over 35 years of experience with traffic operations and safety engineering and transportation planning projects, research and management; he is active on several national committees; and he is a co-author of several published research articles and reports.
From North Carolina, the topic will be alternative intersections and interchanges and the speaker will be Joe Hummer, PhD, PE. North Carolina is the world’s leader in the installation of RCUTs (RCIs), has installed at least one version of every major alternative design, and continues to innovate by, for example, opening the world’s first superstreet interchange just a couple months ago, and Joe will describe how NCDOT developed that culture of innovation. Joe is the State Traffic Management Engineer at NCDOT, was a faculty member at three universities for 27 years before that, and has taught workshops on alternative intersections and interchanges in Virginia for several decades.
We will provide 1.5 PDHs for attendance.
