PUG Chair Corner: Starting Strong in 2022

February 28, 2022

As we start 2022, the challenges from the previous two years are still foremost in our minds. Some continue working from home while others are in the office. At times this has made communicating a challenge, but the PUG Board is committed to communicating with the user community on the happenings of the Board.

With that said, the PUG Conference 2022 is still planned to be an in-person conference held in Nevada, Sunday, October 16th, 2022, through Thursday, October 20th, 2022. In April of 2021, the Project User Group approved an increase to the conference registration fee to $500.00 with $550 for late registration for the 2022 Conference.

The PUG Board is currently working on the Agenda, Trainings and Presentations for the conference. The Save the Date flyer has been placed on the Forum under Announcements and also Under the Project User Group. So, make your plans to attend the conference! We can’t wait to see your smiling face!
On another note, the PUG Board is joining PTF, Infotech, and the user community in a AASHTO PUG Ballot Improvement Subgroup. The group will be reviewing the ballot process to determine the best method to receive feedback from the User community regarding enhancements and what changes are needed going forward. Should you have any questions or feedback, please contact a member of the Board at PUGBOARD@aashtowareproject.org.

Thank you and stay safe!
