NVCOG TTAC

The NVCOG Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) serves as the region’s technical resource for issues related to transportation infrastructure, safety, and maintenance. The committee reviews significant policies and projects and offers recommendations to the Board of Directors.  

Additionally, the TTAC provides a forum for the region’s transportation and public works professionals to discuss issues of mutual concern, seek advice from peers, and stay informed about transportation issues and programs.
