Operational Technology & Innovation: A Roundtable Discussion
A CT ROAD SCHOLAR PROGRAM ELECTIVE WORKSHOP
Have you heard about a new technology or product and want to learn more about how it is working out?

Do you wish you "had an app for that"?

Have you tried something new and want to spread the word so others can benefit from your experience? 

If you are interested in learning how to integrate new technologies into your operations or how towns are faring with new methods and materials, join us for this informative and open discussion. We will have speakers from several different towns discuss how they have come up with innovative programs and are using technology to:
  • Keep better track of assets; 
  • Improve safety; 
  • Prepare for winter operations; 
  • Extend the life of their equipment.
We will also have some of our Creative Solutions on hand so you can check them out and talk to those that designed them. 
Who Should Attend  
 
This discussion is open to those who are interested in improving their operations.

Public Works Directors, Road Foremen, Highway Superintendents, Town Engineers, Fleet Managers and anyone responsible for roadway maintenance operations are encourage to attend.
