VTCA-VDOT Consultant Forum October 14, 2014 Richmond Marriott Richmond, VA WWW.VTCA.ORG Building Relationships, Business And Our Future VTCA-VDOT Consultant Forum Virginia’s transportation program continues to rapidly change. The State Legislature’s approval of the historic Transportation Funding in 2013 is still unfolding and bringing unprecedented changes to the Department and the Consultant Industry. This year’s Forum will focus on VDOT’s plan and strategy to successfully and timely deliver new projects with the significant increase in funding. Managing and delivering the Commonwealth’s transportation program has taken on new meaning in the last few years. VDOT’s reliance on the industry to help deliver the transportation program continues to grow with the program. Subsequently new initiatives, policies and strategies to make the processes more efficient are being implemented. Rather than making business decisions on rumors and hearsay come learn directly from VDOT’s leadership, including Virginia Secretary of Transportation Aubrey Layne, Commissioner Charlie Kilpatrick and Chief Engineer Garrett Moore, about the details on Virginia’s goals and the strategies to reach them. Join representatives from VDOT’s engineering staff, municipal transportation officials and consultant engineers at the 2014 VTCA-VDOT Consultant Forum to learn the latest on VDOT’s initiatives, discuss important issues and challenges and address your questions. There is no greater opportunity for the transportation engineering community to openly discuss the issues that matter most to Virginia’s transportation engineering firms. This year’s Program Topics include: Discussion with Commissioner Charlie Kilpatrick, Chief Engineer Garrett Moore, members of the Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads Local Transportation Authorities. Details on the Department’s effort to evaluate and prioritize projects for programming into the six-year plan. Scheduled Sessions include: Latest Policy Changes for Consultant Procurement Design-Build & P3 Program Delivery Environmental Regulatory Changes VDOT’s Engineering Division Updates And more 2014 VTCA Engineering Awards and Scholarship Presentations The Annual Consultant Forum is an informational and educational event jointly produced by the members of the Virginia Transportation Construction Alliance and the Virginia Department of Transportation.
