Denver International Airport (DIA) was named 6th busiest airport in the WORLD and recently announced the addition of 100 more gates. As not only a travel hub, but a major distribution hub globally, how is the surrounding area changing to accommodate demand? With an Aerotropolis! In the works for years, the Colorado Aerotropolis officially launched this week and aims to attract businesses that benefit from close proximity to supply chains and the airport. With over 16,000 acres of land primed for development, the Aerotropolis is targeting industries such varied as advanced manufacturing, aerospace, agriculture, renewable energy, and healthcare.

I've been running this non-scientific poll since the start of the ITE—A Community of Transportation Professionals 2024 conference. I was looking to test the results Gavin Jeter and I gathered last year where there was a bias towards signs, lines and markings, but also (oddly) geometric intervention (via superelevation). I'm pleased to see this year's results favor less expensive and hence more widely deployable solutions. I want to reiterate, this was a quick and dirty survey and it's difficult to draw many conclusions. And before you ask, I could only list 5 options so yes if I could have, I would have listed many more. 😉 What is your preferred countermeasure for roadway departures (RwD)? #safesystem

Pilotage: to direct vessels to navigate on the water passages in ports, coastal waters, inland rivers or lakes. Also, pilotage: the art of getting lost in sight of land, as opposed to the distinct and far more complex science of navigation, used to get lost in offshore waters. Today was definitely a case of the first definition of pilotage, expertly done by our HM Jonathan Kidd. Calling into Cowes is the appropriately named ‘MV Waterway’ to load grain. A view not many see is the ships eye view of the River Medina south of the chain ferry, and just how tight it can be throughout the harbour. Rule 9 anybody…
