Detroit becomes home of National Transportation Week; alternative fuel the focus
National Transportation Week will find a permanent
home in the Motor City in May 2007, with a focus on alternative energies
during the debut year, officials from the Detroit Metro Convention &
Visitors Bureau say.
According to the story:
This is the first time Detroit has hosted National Transportation Week,
and the city will serve as the permanent epicenter of primary activities
for the event in the future. National Transportation Week is an
opportunity for transportation professionals to gather for industry-related
events, meetings and conferences addressing key issues in the air, rail,
trucking, shipping and automotive fields.
Transportation organizations are encouraged to bring their conventions
to metro Detroit during the third week in May each year (May 13 – 18, 2007)
to take advantage of the conversations, conference speakers and a wealth of
transportation knowledge and technology that will be centered in Detroit
during that time of year.
