Students interested in participating in the 2019 Transportation Technology Tournament (TTT) can begin forming their teams now to prepare for the formal announcement of the competition, which will be publicized in mid-November. Students can choose to address an ITS or Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) real-world problem provided by a State or local transportation agency, or to propose their own problem to address. The TTT is a cooperative endeavor by the ITS PCB Program and the National Operations Center of Excellence (NOCoE).

November 16, 3:00-4:00 PM ET–Innovation adoption research has largely ignored organization adoption, and little work has been done to understand or predict the adoption of innovations by freight organizations. The National Institute for Transportation and Communities (NITC) session will present a dis-aggregate market penetration model for freight transportation organizations adopting connected/automated vehicle (CAV) technology and demonstrate an application using a case study area in Memphis, TN. The webinar will also highlight future organizational adoption research for CAVs.
