Transportation Communications Newsletter

Tuesday, March 6, 2018 - Cranford, New Jersey



The USTDA is hosting a business briefing to inform U.S. companies about highway/toll road concession projects opportunities in Brazil. A new round of highway concessions is underway, that will add to Brazil’s already extensive network. This event will inform U.S. businesses in the highway/toll road ITS, back office processing, and safety sectors on Brazil’s development plans for toll-road concession end-cycle technology deployment and upgrades (including a conversion to free-flow tolling), directly from decision makers representing the concessions.  One-on-one meetings between these Brazilian delegates and U.S. companies will be arranged after the briefings; these meetings will provide opportunities for U.S. companies to meet with, and showcase, their highway/tolling ITS and highway safety services, solutions and equipment to the Brazilian delegation.
This event is being organized by Koeppen, Elliott & Associates, Limited (KEA). For more information about how your company can participate, please contact David Elliott at davidelliott@kealtd.com or 757-342-2149.
