    July 26, 2016

    The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) has kicked off its annual appeal to trucking industry stakeholders for their thoughts on the top issues facing the industry.

    The 2016 Top Industry Issues Survey can be accessed through the ATRI website. In its 12 year, it is commissioned by the American Trucking Assns. (ATA).

    "In complex times like this it is critical that we do our part to help ensure a thriving future for the trucking industry," said ATA Chairman Pat Thomas, Sr. Vice President, State Government Affairs, UPS, Inc. "With your participation, we can speak with a collective industry voice on the issues most important to us."

    The results of the 2016 survey will be released at the ATA Annual Management Conference and Exhibition, to be held Oct. 1-4, 2016, in Las Vegas.
