WEBINAR — EDC-5: Weather-Responsive Management Strategies DESCRIPTION:Join the NJDOT Bureau of Research on Tuesday\, April 14th for a Lunchtime Tech Talk! WEBINAR on EDC-5: Weather-Responsive Management Strategies.\nThis event will feature Ray Murphy\, ITS Specialist with the FHWA Resource Center. \nBy adopting WRMS\, transportation agencies can better manage traffic and maintenance roadway conditions during inclement weather to improve safety and reliability\, and minimize environmental impacts of weather on the transportation system. WMRS use road weather data from Integrating Mobile Observations (IMO) and connected vehicle technologies\, combined with informed decisions stemming from the collaborative strategy known as Pathfinder. With this data\, State and local agencies can deploy appropriate traffic management strategies where they are needed before negative incidents occur\, and reduce costs associated with winter maintenance\, including salt and chemical applications. \nIn addition to expertise in Road Weather Management\, Mr. Murphy is an expert in the areas of transportation cybersecurity and connected/automated vehicles. He has more than 30 years of experience as an electrical engineer\, having served both in the U.S. Naval Civil Engineers Corps (SEABEES) and Illinois Department of Transportation. \nThe event is free\, but registration is required to receive the URL link to the webinar.

How can streets be better designed for the elderly? How can housing authorities avoid trash overflow onto sidewalks?\nUrbanites long for cities that are more walkable\, bikeable\, and responsive. This event will explore two key tools for realizing these goals: partnership building\, and frontier technology. Specifically\, a look into Numina’s sensing platform that measures street activity. \nHow can planning professionals work with this data and budding technology firms? The Downtown Brooklyn Partnership will share on partnerships for the public realm and the Living Labs program. \nAfter the panel discussion\, there will be an opportunity for attendees to explore Numina’s data dashboards; including data on public streets\, parks and plazas\, and trash collection. \nThis event is hosted by the APA New York Metro Chapter Technology Committee and is eligible for 1 CM credit; however\, you do not need to be a Chapter member or urban planner to attend\, open to the public. \nLink: https://www.nyplanning.org/events/empowering-cities-with-data-partnership-building-frontier-technologies/ URL:https://njdottechtransfer.net/event/empowering-cities-with-data-partnership-building-frontier-technologies/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200225T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200229T000000 DTSTAMP:20260411T141653 CREATED:20251205T195437Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251205T195437Z UID:21153-1582588800-1582934400@njdottechtransfer.net SUMMARY:FHWA/NHI - Fracture Critical Inspection Techniques for Steel Bridges DESCRIPTION:COURSE DESCRIPTION:\nThe course curriculum for this training reflects current practices\, while addressing new and emerging technologies available to bridge inspectors. In addition\, the course features exemplary training; hands-on workshops for popular types of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) equipment; and a case study of an inspection plan for a fracture critical bridge. \nThe first day of the training focuses on the concept of fracture critical members (FCMs)\, FCM identification\, failure mechanics\, fatigue in metal\, and an overview of NDE methods. Day two includes demonstration sessions and hands-on applications of NDE techniques for dye penetrant\, magnetic particle testing\, Eddy current testing\, and ultrasonic testing. Days three and four emphasize inspection procedures and reporting for common FCMs\, including problematic details\, I-girders\, floor beams\, trusses\, box girders\, pin and hanger assemblies\, arch ties\, eyebars\, and cross girders/pier caps. The course will conclude with a case study detailing the preparation of an inspection plan of a fracture critical bridge. Additionally\, the course instructors will tailor discussions of topics based on State needs and requirements. \n“This training will help inspectors evaluate bridges more thoroughly and will provide them with additional knowledge in how structures work and what can take place when they don’t work\,” states Bill Drosehn\, district bridge inspection engineer for the Massachusetts DOT. \nNote: Hosts are required to provide safety goggles for all course participants as well as a well-ventilated space for conducting the dye penetrant demonstration. \nOUTCOMES: \nUpon completion of the course\, participants will be able to: \n * Identify fracture critical members (FCMs)\n * Identify problematic details\n * Identify areas most susceptible to fatigue and fracture\n * Record defects\n * Evaluate defects\n * Evaluate nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods\n * Evaluate retrofit details \nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThose who will benefit most from this training are public and private sector bridge inspectors\, supervisors\, project engineers\, and others responsible for field inspection of fracture critical steel bridge members. Prior to taking this course\, participants should have completed NHI course 130055\, Safety Inspection of In-Service Bridges\, or possess equivalent field experience relative to bridges. Participants also should have a thorough understanding of bridge mechanics and bridge safety inspection procedures as required by the National Bridge Inspection Standards.

But it takes high quality community engagement and leadership to put strategies into action and create vibrant places where people want to live\, work and visit. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a community problem-solving approach that brings together law enforcement\, city planners\, residents and local stakeholders to assess a neighborhood’s vulnerabilities to crime and collaboratively develop meaningful solutions. Community members can become leaders by self-organizing within a multi-disciplinary team to work ahead of or in tandem with local government rather than waiting for government-led projects. Good lighting and community-driven design and maintenance of public spaces are just a couple examples of how communities can help deter crime and make members of the community feel safer. \nThis workshop will go beyond training participants in crime prevention concepts. It will demonstrate how the CPTED process provides a model for empowering members of the community within a self-guided process for problem identification\, development of solutions\, and executing physical and social changes in their environments. \n*Snow date (if needed): Wednesday\, December 11\, 2019* \nTo register: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/tnj-institute-neighborhood-empowerment-models-tickets-79761024371 URL:https://njdottechtransfer.net/event/tnj-institute-neighborhood-empowerment-models/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20191121T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20191121T180000 DTSTAMP:20260411T141653 CREATED:20251205T195338Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251205T195338Z UID:21137-1574341200-1574359200@njdottechtransfer.net SUMMARY:NJLTAP – Traffic Incident Management Training for Emergency Responders DESCRIPTION:Three vehicle crashes involving injuries occur every minute in the United States putting nearly 39\,000 incident responders in harm’s way daily. Disruption and congestion from these incidents can increase the likelihood of secondary crashes\, cause delays\, and increase driver frustration. The longer responders remain on the scene\, the greater the risk they\, and the traveling public\, face. Correct traffic incident management (TIM) focuses on responding in a way that protects motorists and emergency personnel while minimizing negative effects on traffic. TIM practices include detecting\, verifying\, and responding to incidents; clearing the incident scene; and restoring traffic flow.\nUsing a multi-discipline approach\, first responders in New Jersey will learn how to operate more efficiently and act collectively. The training covers topics including TIM guidelines\, fundamentals\, and terminology; notifications and scene size up; scene safety and risk management; traffic management; special circumstances; clearance; and termination. \nThis course is open to all traffic-incident first responders including personnel in law enforcement\, fire fighting\, emergency medical services (EMS)\, public safety\, public works\, towing and recovery\, and hazardous materials (HAZMAT). \nFor more registration information. https://cait.rutgers.edu/event/njltap-traffic-incident-management-training-for-emergency-responders-3-2/ URL:https://njdottechtransfer.net/event/njltap-traffic-incident-management-training-for-emergency-responders/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
