IL-ITE had a blast judging entries at the the Illinois Future Cities Competition on January 21. IL-ITE hosted a special award for the competition, Best Transportation System, and there were some amazing ideas put forth by the middle school aged participants. The city IL-ITE awarded had a vibrant underground transit rail system, a system of underground roadways devoted to maintenance and delivery operations, and a vibrant non-motorized transportation network at ground, all next to a big lake (sound familiar?).
There’s lots of energy in these future transportation professionals, and it was great to see the next generation thinking creatively about innovation in transportation and how we tackle some of our biggest problems. Thanks to Nandan Baheti and Tyler Krage for serving on our esteemed judging panel.
Shameless plug, Future Cities is an awesome organization, and is always looking for volunteers to judge, mentor, and more. If your group, company, or section is ever looking to get involved, they have loads of outlets to help, regardless of your time commitment. Check out more here https://futurecity.org/
