#trbam — Public Fediverse posts

I got so much out of it, especially early in my career, but TRB is now dead to me (and pretty sure I’ll never get to #trbam again)

And another TRB Annual Meeting behind us! 😊 #DYK? This was the 105th AM... Yes, that's right, TRB is over 100-year-old! ⏳ Also, #TRBAM is the largest #transportation #research and #engineering event in the world. 🌎 This year's edition may have not hit a record for attendance. But I believe there were over 10,000 participants! 🙌🚁🛩️✈️🚀 #airports #airtravel #aviation #safetyfirst #wearewsp

Still waiting to hear some official stats on #trbam attendance and paper submissions.

It makes me sad that #trbam has cut out and been denied so many voices that are needed in the sector, and it makes me sadder how so much of the online chatter seems pretty much like it’s fine.

Has anyone started a pool on #trbam attendance this year? I’m going with 7,500 (down ~25%)

Scientists skip key US meeting...

Between Fed conference and travel lockdown, visa issues/fears, the war on university grants, #elbowsup Canadians, and now the apparent @trb.org self-immolation, will there even be a #trbam 2026

I said at the time that #trbam 2025 felt like the last dance, but it literally was

Ever gotten a paper into #trbam? Yep, it’s probably in there.

#trbam 2025 had big last-dance vibes to me, and that’s feeling truer by the day.

Back from #TRBAM, I found my car still a bit icy from the recent snow event at @RDUairport. This cute mini scraper came handy. From a (quite collector) Aéroports de Paris emergency car kit featuring a bunch of other useful items. What are your favorite airport goodies? 😊✈️ #airports #avgeeks #aviation

The black square in the middle is 40 inches square. For a minute I thought I could do a subway-style map of the 1923 railway network in Ontario and Quebec rather than just one of Toronto and Central Ontario.

That might be just a tad bit too ambitious.

(My #TRBAM doodling.)

Great #trbam research from @nwurban.bsky.social on the safety and comfort of shared bike/bus stop platforms in Portland. Findings - low conflicts, bicyclists slowed in the presence of buses and people, people generally managing interactions even when not strictly following design intent.

I went to a #trbam reception and all I got was this stupid hangover

Someone had the right idea! Sunny in DC yesterday after the snowstorm.

On my agenda at #TRBAM this morning: Interchanges, modal interactions and plan-making. Say hello if you see me.

Today at #TRBAM I got to hear what's going on in developing world transport; chat with someone about how to deploy woonerven in Ames, Iowa; ask a pointed question about lessons learned and cost control to the secretary of California DOT; and got invited to join a committee.

A good day.

#trbam paper needed on the ridiculousness of the crossing of L St NW between the Conv Center buildings

At ACH-10 #trbam Committee on Bicycle Transportation, which I promise is funner than your committee

Next up, Dr Jonathan Peters with Rutgers/one of the SUNYs? “One of the first or second best timed #trbam sessions evah!” Got that right.

No slides no paper just vibes. I wish I could rant out my vibes on a #trbam lectern. But I guess his core objection to NYC is that the fee seems arbitrary, is not responsive to traffic volumes, and benefits may not accrue to toll payers. Which I agree with, but baby bathwater yada yada

We had a fantastic workshop on Artificial Intelligence in #Aviation yesterday at #TRBAM! Room was full. We got insightful posters. And we witnessed a lot of great discussions during the small group activities. Many thanks to Dr. Mike Horton of USDOT & Brian O'Donnell of Volpe Center for speaking at our event. Kudos to our organizers Nubia Del Carpio and Cheng Wang! ✈️🤖 #airtravel #research #safetyfirst #stem

I’m back at the #TRBAM conference & what is clear: in the nearly 20 years I’ve been going to these, because of Sec. Buttigieg, & leaders like @gretchentg.bsky.social & colleagues, the US Department of Transportation is finally, approaching its job as a climate agency, & understands justice. 💡🔌

On my way to #trbam : second try after my bus got cancelled yesterday...

New #TRBAM calls for papers on #AI in aviation and the impact of transformational changes on safety by the @NASEMTRB AV090 #Aviation Safety, Security & Emergency Mgmt Cmte: https://sites.google.com/umes.edu/av090/research. Don't forget to submit your #research papers by 8/1/2024! ✈️🛩️🚁

Very hot days impact #aircraft performance until PAX & payload may need to be offloaded: https://x.com/fl360aero/status/1781935888840221168?s=46. Many #airports are facing more of these +100°F due to #ClimateChange. Also, ✈️ are becoming more performant overall. We studied these trends & presented at NASEM/TRB #TRBAM a few years ago.

#MITRE shared findings on airport operations already being effected by extreme heat: https://trb.secure-platform.com/a/solicitations/104/sessiongallery/schedule/items/1584. I presented a paper on this topic w/ Loup-Giang Nguyen at 2021 #TRBAM: Long-Term Trends on Rwy Length Reqs of Transport Jet #Aircraft for #Airport Planning. This was part of a broader WSP-funded effort on the impact of #ClimateChange on #airports that we delivered last year. ✈️ #aviation #research #resilience #STEM

Great #trbam presentation on the trapezoid delineator, to guide people who are blind away from sidewalk-level bike lanes and other conflict areas.
