Welcome to Houston
Howdy y’all, welcome to Houston, Texas. On behalf of the Transportation and Development
Institute (T&DI) of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), it is our pleasure to welcome
you to the ASCE International Conference on Transportation & Development 2016. The theme
of this year’s conference is “Projects and Practices for Prosperity”. The International Conference
on Transportation and Development (ICTD 2016) serves as a synergistic opportunity to bring
together academics, consultants, government representatives, and contractors from around the
world to discuss critical transportation needs and solutions.
The demand for infrastructure improvement helps drive investment and development decisions.
As communities grow, the needs for transportation, utility delivery services, and sustainable
development practices increase. Additionally, transportation professionals must address these
needs while considering funding challenges, natural resource constraints, and environmental
protection. During this week at ICTD, you will be able to explore new technologies and creative
financing of capital investment to move people and goods safely, efficiently, and with minimal
environmental impact.
The Conference Steering Committee has worked hard over the last two years to make ICTD
2016 the premier conference venue for transportation and development professionals. You will
be attending sessions this week during ICTD that will showcase technologies that transportation
and development professionals will be implementing in the near future. In addition to future
transportation concepts, conference sessions include many case study presentations highlighting
lessons learned during many large-scale transportation projects. This week’s program includes
five concurrent technical tracks, two workshops, and three technical tours to enable you as an
attendee to earn up to 24 professional development hours (PDHs) towards your Professional
Engineering licensure.
In addition to participating in sessions under five technical tracks, you will have the opportunity
to review poster displays. The ICTD begins on Monday with seven outstanding plenary
speakers addressing topics of interest to the many specialties represented by conference
attendees. Technical sessions begin on Monday afternoon and run through Wednesday
morning. The sessions cover the various transportation and development modes related to
design, rehabilitation, sustainability, construction, operation and emerging technologies.
On Wednesday afternoon, you will have the option of choosing from three technical tours:
George Bush Intercontinental Airport, the Transtar Traffic Operation Center, and the Uptown
Management District.
So enjoy your week here at ICTD 2016 as an attendee, presenter, exhibitor, sponsor, or
cooperating organization. On behalf of the conference Steering Committee, we look forward to
meeting all y’all and giving you a Howdy welcome to Houston, TX at ICTD 2016.

Conference Agenda
TransportationCamp
Texas 2016
TransportationCamp Texas 2016, a partnership with the
American Society of Civil Engineers and the Houston and
Austin Chapters of the Young Professionals in Transportation
(YPT), aims to bring together diverse views and perspectives
on pressing transportation issues in Texas. By hosting
TransportationCamp at ICTD, YPT, and ASCE are helping
to create a unique TransportationCamp atmosphere, where
technologists, transportation advocates, and users can come
together in open conversation with the operators of Texas’
transportation providers.
Sunday, June 26
What is an Unconference?
10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Registration Fee:
$25
Morning Coffee will be included
in the registration fee of $25,
but guests will be expected to
provide their own lunch.
Though it will take place
during a conference,
the event will be
run as a standard
“unconference”
— sessions will be
proposed on the day
of the event and will
range in transportation
topics based on the
interest of the attendees.
TransportationCamp Texas will be held as an unconference — a loosely structured conference emphasizing
the informal exchange of information and ideas between participants, rather than following a conventionally
structured program of events. Typically at an unconference, the agenda is created by the attendees at the
beginning of the meeting. Anyone who wants to initiate a discussion on a topic can claim a time and a space.
Unconferences typically feature open discussions rather than having a single speaker at the front of the room
giving a talk, although any format is permitted. It is an exciting new way to engage in a group discussion,
exchange great ideas, and learn from your peers.
TransportationCamp 2016 will begin in the Colonnade Salon B & Preassembly.

Keynote Address
Sylvester Turner, Mayor, City of Houston
Sylvester Turner was elected Mayor of Houston on December 12,
2015, to serve a four year term beginning January 4, 2016. He was
born and raised in the Acres Homes community in northwest Houston.
Sylvester’s mother worked as a maid in the
old Rice Hotel in Houston. His father was a
painter for Continental Ensco and cut yards
with his sons on the weekends to make extra
money. The Turners raised nine children in
their modest two-bedroom home. Sylvester
lost his father to cancer when he was 13.
Afterward, his mother took over the Turner
household. Although she never finished high
school or learned to drive, she ensured her children got an education
and inspired them to achieve.
Sylvester attended neighborhood public schools until forced integration
came to Houston, and he was bused to Klein High School. After a
predictably rocky start, the student body adapted to its new enrollees.
Sylvester was later elected student body president and graduated as
valedictorian.
Sylvester graduated from the University of Houston and Harvard Law
School before joining the law firm of Fulbright & Jaworski. He later
founded the Houston law firm of Barnes & Turner in 1983.
In 1988, Sylvester was elected to the Texas House of Representatives
to serve the people of House District 139 in Northwest Houston. He
served until his election as mayor, working on the House Appropriations
Committee for 21 years and serving as Speaker Pro Tem for three terms.
He was appointed to several Budget Conference Committees to help
balance the state’s budget and served on the Legislative Budget Board.

When construction on the new concourse is completed, the Houston
Airport System will demolish the existing Terminal C North facility at
Bush Intercontinental to enable the reconstruction of the Mickey Leland
International Terminal D. The international terminal is critical to Bush
Intercontinental’s extensive connecting air traffic, particularly for those
customers connecting between United flights and flights operated by
United’s international airline partners.
The tour will include a presentation on the redevelopment of the
international terminal. Reconstruction of Terminal C is a prerequisite
under the facility master plan for the international terminal that permits
Terminal D to be redeveloped. The expansion will provide additional
gates, make Terminals C and D a single linked facility and provide
additional positions for the Airbus A380 and Boeing 747-8. Houston is
one of the few airports that sees regular service from the most commonly
operated Group VI aircraft – the Antonov AN-124, the Airbus A380
and the Boeing B747-8.

Houston Uptown Management District Tour
Uptown Houston has distinguished itself as the
city’s elite destination for fashion. It is the shopping
mecca of the Southwest.
Each year, more than 26 million people from
near and far are drawn to the exquisite collection
of stores at The Galleria, the fourth largest retail
complex in the United States, and to the beauty of
Uptown Park, a European-styled retail center whose
elegant shops exude Old World charm. In addition,
hundreds of other specialty shops, boutiques and
restaurants are sprinkled throughout the area,
offering shoppers an assortment of options including
the new BLVD Place, Centre at Post Oak and Post
Oak Shopping Center.
With more than 28 million square feet of
commercial office space and five million square
feet of retail space combined with nearly 7,600
hotel rooms, more than 100 restaurants and a
booming residential market, Uptown Houston is...
Where You Can Have It All. As one of the world’s
leading urban districts, Uptown Houston is poised
to become even greater than the prestigious blend
of commercial and residential properties that it is
today. Through a series of improvement initiatives,
10
Uptown Houston is implementing a strategic vision
which will ensure its continued success.
ICTD registrants for the Uptown Houston District tour
will begin their tour with a presentation reviewing
the recent considerable development occurring
in the Houston business district. Along with this
growing development, transportation demands
have significantly increased. The tour presentation
will include how the Houston Galveston Area
Council’s (H-GAC) Transportation Policy Council
took first steps in meeting this need by approving
a transportation improvement program that
includes the politically controversial Uptown Bus
Rapid Transit (BRT) line. After the presentation, tour
attendees will participate on a walking tour of the
area highlighting the area’s recent development and
proposed transportation system.
