Trucking industry asked to rank top concerns

Aug. 6, 2015
The annual survey, commissioned by the American Trucking Associations (ATA), asks trucking industry stakeholders to rank the top issues of concern for the industry along with appropriate strategies for addressing each issue.

The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI), the trucking industry's not-for-profit research organization, launched the 2015 Top Industry Issues Survey. The annual survey, commissioned by the American Trucking Associations (ATA), asks trucking industry stakeholders to rank the top issues of concern for the industry along with appropriate strategies for addressing each issue. The survey is in its 11th year and participation by trucking stakeholders has grown each year.

"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 Duane Long, Chairman of Longistics. "With your participation, we can speak with a collective industry voice on the issues most important to us." The results of the 2015 survey will be released at the ATA Annual Management Conference and Exhibition, to be held October 17 to 20 in Philadelphia.

Industry stakeholders are encouraged to complete the survey from the website by visiting: http://atri-online.org/
