Sponsor the Arizona Transit Association (AzTA) and Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) 2012 Annual Conference: "Showcasing Value in Transit"

Join AzTA and ADOT at the High Country Conference Center at Northern Arizona University on April 23-24, 2012, as AzTA begins its 25th Anniversary celebration with its co-host ADOT. This year's conference will feature three tracks, including: Improving the Operation, Achieving Sustainability, and Partnering for Success. Nearly 20 sessions will provide practitioners, planners, operators, and users with valuable information and skills to make public transportation programs and services better, while finding ways to meet the current economic challenges that face us all. AzTA's many partners will bring new concepts to public transportation programs and attendees can gain important and relevant continuing education credits, all the while experiencing northern Arizona's spring weather with some great outdoor activities.

Highlights include keynote speaker Jarrett Walker, whose recent book "Human Transit" will be the basis for an entertaining and thought-provoking approach to meeting the challenges of a growing population and transportation infrastructure.

The conference will feature several other important activities, including hosting Arizona's only Transit Exhibitor/Vendor show on April 23, 2012. And, you can add value to efforts by sponsoring one or both events that happen before the conference begins, too. The Arizona Department of Transportation's State Transportation Board Dinner will be Thursday evening, April 19, and ADOT's first Transit Technicians Maintenance Rodeo will be on April 21-22. Look for those opportunities when you register.
