Transportation connects people to their community. Whether it is across the street, across town, or around the neighborhood for work, play, or for other reasons, people walk, drive, bike, take transit, or other modes of transportation to get from point A to point B. ITE’s members seek to ensure transportation is safe, effective, and equitable for all users within a community.
This year’s theme for the Joint ITE International and Western District Annual Meeting and Exhibition is Connecting People and Communities. This meeting will take place in the Oregon Convention Center (OCC) and its headquarters hotel, the brand new Hyatt Regency hotel, just across the river from downtown Portland. The OCC and hotel are steps from Portland MAX light rail, convenient to many local and regional attractions, and a gateway to the Pacific Northwest, making it a great opportunity for both individual and family travel.
