After 12 years, our National Institute for Transportation and Communities (NITC) is coming to a close, and we're taking a moment to look back at some of the impacts our center has had. One of our proudest is supporting students in multimodal education: nitc.trec.pdx.edu/news/stude…
As we say goodbye, we want to thank all faculty, students, and partners for your hard work over the years and for being involved with furthering NITC's mission of improving the mobility of people and goods to build strong communities!
This Twitter account will be inactive going forward, but you can still keep up with the folks at our headquarters, @TRECpdx, to hear about what they're working on next as a partner university in @PacTransUTC!
Give @TRECpdx a follow, and keep on doing great work!

No jokes, just facts!
Crosswalk enhancements like yield markings and high visibility paint make pedestrians more visible and help prevent crashes.
