Specialized Transporation Symposium 2019:
February 19th - 22nd
The 2019 Specialized Transportation Symposium will bring together top managers in operations, safety directors, pilot car professionals, permitting officials, law enforcement, and many others who deal with the professional transportation of oversize/overweight cargo.
The main goal is to ensure that permitting runs smoothly, safety concerns are addressed, and the most pressing topics in specialized transportation are discussed. The SC&RA is also planning on unveiling its groundbreaking proposal for 100 percent uniform permit weight analysis and allowance.
In addition to an exhibit center with a record-high 60 booths, there will be education sessions and expert speakers from within the industry.
Former Navy SEAL and Co-Star of American Sniper, Kevin "Dauber" Lacz will kick off the 2019 symposium by speaking on "the pitfalls of becoming too comfortable in any situation and the characteristics of the most successful individuals."
