Rail~Volution weaves together national best practices with the unique strengths, characteristics, and lessons learned at the local level. The local host committee helps this happen by defining the regional story, gathering local leaders, and providing insight and context for new projects. The local host committee plans Mobile Workshops and Pre-Conference Events, produces the Welcome Reception, and coordinates a half-day regional session on the last day of the conference.
One of the goals for Rail~Volution is to weave best practices nationally with the unique strengths, characteristics and lessons learned at the local level. The local host committee helps make this happen, by defining the regional story, gathering local leaders, and providing insight and context for new projects. Serving as a local host also increases regional momentum for building livable communities with transit.
