The following article appeared in the June 22, 2023, edition of Transit Time, a free weekly newsletter covering transit and transportation in Charlotte from The Charlotte Ledger and WFAE.

Transit Time is pleased to announce we’ve signed on as a media partner to an annual transportation summit that brings together local, state and federal policymakers to discuss transportation and mobility issues.

Our Transit Time team attended last year and anchored a panel. The summit is a great place to learn about the latest in Charlotte-area transit and transportation from decision-makers. (Last year’s event drew more than 350 people … and led to several of our insightful articles about emerging trends.)

This year’s day-long South Charlotte Partners Regional Transportation Summit will be Sept. 11 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Ballantyne hotel and will feature an all-star lineup of confirmed speakers including:

  • N.C. Secretary of Transportation Eric Boyette

  • Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles

  • Charlotte City Council member and transportation committee chair Ed Driggs

  • NCDOT’s Division 10’s Brett Canipe

  • NCDOT board member Tony Lathrop

  • CLT Airport’s Stuart Hair

  • American Airlines’ Tracy Montross

  • Gresham Smith aviation design expert Ben Goebel

  • CATS’ Jason Lawrence

Sponsors currently include: Silver: Novant; Bronze: Froehling & Robertson, Gresham Smith, HNTB, LaBella Architects and Towne Bank; Media Partner: The Charlotte Ledger 

Individual tickets for the summit are $100 and can be purchased here:
