New Jersey Future‘s annual Redevelopment Forum is approaching fast! Register now to take advantage of the early-bird rate (which ends this Friday, February 20).
The Redevelopment Forum takes place on March 13 at the New Brunswick Hyatt Hotel and Conference Center, and will feature keynotes from Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop and Congress for the New Urbanism President Lynn Richards. The daylong conference, now in its 10th year, brings together more than 500 municipal and state leaders and professionals in planning, development, law, transportation, architecture, construction, environmental conservation and historic preservation to share best practices and lessons learned.
Tri-State Transportation Campaign Executive Director Veronica Vanterpool will take part in a panel which will discuss the investments New Jersey needs to make in its transportation system: a new passenger rail tunnel under the Hudson, new links in the rail transit network, improvements to the pedestrian experience in built-up areas – as well as the need to address the backlog of roads and bridges in need of repair. Strategies for how to fund these investments will also be addressed. The panel also features
- Jack Lettiere, President, Jack Lettiere Consulting (Moderator)
- Thomas Bracken, President and CEO, New Jersey Chamber of Commerce
- Mary K. Murphy, Executive Director, North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority
