It is crucial that executive management and emergency response planners at state transportation agencies (DOTs) work together. TRB hosted a webinar on Wednesday, May 26, 2021 from 2:00-3:30 PM Eastern that provided guidance for DOT senior executives about how to embed resilience into transportation planning.
