Webinar: How the FAF Can Help You

Mid-America Freight Coalition 

Thursday, April 10, 2014
1:00-2:15pm Eastern

The FHWA Office of Freight Management and Operations is holding a webinar on the Freight Analysis Framework.

During this webinar, FHWA will offer practitioners in State departments of transportation, metropolitan/regional planning organizations, and other agencies an overview of how the FAF can make a difference. FHWA will outline the FAF‘s main components and give examples of using the FAF for statewide and metropolitan level issues. This webinar is aimed at practitioners with basic or no knowledge of the FAF but who would like to move to the next skill level. This webinar will also provide a useful foundation for more advanced topics (e.g., linking FAF with county-level data, using FAF for statewide freight planning) that will be covered in future webinars.

To attend this webinar, register by April 7.
If you have questions about this webinar, email FAF@dot.gov.
