The third webinar of the AERIS autumn/winter 2012-2013 webinar series will take place on Wednesday, 12 December 2012 at 1:00 pm EST. The webinar will provide an overview of the draft concept of operations for the dynamic low emissions zones transformative concept.
 
As part of the AERIS program's efforts to develop ways in which real-time transportation system data could improve the operation of the surface transportation network, six transformative concepts, or bundles of applications, were identified. Each of these transformative concepts encompasses a set of applications that individually achieve environmental benefits. By strategically bundling these applications, the program expects that these transformative concepts can achieve additional environmental benefits beyond those of the individual applications.
 
The dynamic low emissions zones transformative concept discusses connected vehicle operational strategies for geographically-defined areas that seek to restrict or deter access to specific categories of high-polluting vehicles to improve the air quality within the geographic area. This webinar will describe the concept of operations currently being developed for this Transformative Concept and will provide an overview of how each of its associated applications work together to achieve the goals of the program.

    While truck parking may not be at the top of most transportation professionals’ minds, it is a subject HNTB is highlighting at its booth – and for good reasons. Commercial truck drivers spend 30 minutes searching for a place to park their rigs, often resorting to highway shoulders, exit ramps or the more risky abandoned and commercial lots.
