The 2010 APTA Transportation & University Communities Conference will convene in Athens, GA, April 10-13, with the Athens Transit System and the University of Georgia serving as co-hosts. This biannual conference focuses on meeting the unique needs of university communities, offering educational opportunities and practical solutions useful in the day-to-day management of university transportation and the communities it serves.

Dr. Yvette G. Taylor, Region 4 administrator for the Federal Transit Administration since 2004, will offer the keynote address at the Closing General Session.

The conference will bring together more than 150 public transportation professionals and experts from university communities around the country at the Classic Center in downtown Athens. Session topics will include green vehicles, developing successful marketing campaigns through partnerships, university safety and security programs, student roles and responsibilities in the university transit decision-making process, and a bonus roundtable discussion on being prepared for the next pandemic.
