Kenneth Orski, the editor and publisher of Innovation Briefs, the influential bi-monthly on the future of surface transportation, will address Program, Finance and Administration Committee (PFAC) meeting on Sept. 21st.

Mr. Orski will discuss two emerging trends in surface transportation: The growing use of tolls and variable road pricing tools to augment revenue and managing travel demand; and the more prominent roles of the private sector and private investment capital in the construction, financing and operation of new transportation facilities.

The PFAC meeting begins at 1.15pm. Admission is free but RSVPs are required due to lobby security. To RSVP, call NYMTC offices at 212.383.7200
