The Street and Highway Operations Committee (SHOC) invites you to join the Committee meeting at the ICTD Conference. This committee falls under the Roadway Council and is led by Srikanth Panguluri, PE, M.ASCE, a Senior Project Engineer with Jacobs. The SHOC's purpose is, "to review, develop, promote, advance, and put into practice concepts, standards and technology to achieve the safe, efficient, and reliable movement of people and goods on streets and highways." Recently, one important goal of the SHOC was accomplished when its Complete Streets Task Force became the Active Transportation Committee, a standalone committee that will also fall under the Roadway Council. Congratulations to the new Active Transportation Committee, check it out at ICTD.
