Carlsbad, CA, September 26, 2023: Neology today announced that Senior Vice President of Business Development, Joseph Averkamp will present at the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association (IBTTA) 91st Annual Conference in Seattle, WA on October 8, 2023. His topic begins at 15:30 and will cover the topic of reducing traffic-related deaths through policy and technology advancements. The US DOT 2023 Progress Report on the National Roadway Safety Strategy stated that based on the first nine months of 2022, deaths would remain near 2021 levels while getting worse for incidents involving trucks and people walking, biking, or rolling. An estimated 42,915 lives were lost on US roads in 2021, an increase of more than 10% compared to 2020. US DOT’s and EU’s Vision Zero approach tackles safety challenges from all disciplines, looking for solutions from emerging technology advancements to sweeping policy changes. Following their lead, presenters will discuss how zero traffic deaths can be achieved and how to reduce serious injuries.
