American Trucking Association’s Technology & Maintenance Council will host its Transportation Technology Exhibition in-person during TMC’s 2021 Fall Meeting, Sept. 12-16 at the Huntington Convention Center of Cleveland in Ohio.

Originally scheduled for March 8-11 in Orlando, TMC’s annual meeting and Transportation Technology Exhibition were moved by TMC and ATA leadership to April 12-15. However, continuing concerns over COVID-19 and corporate travel restrictions in the first half of 2021 have prompted TMC to restructure the format of the council’s annual and fall meetings this year.

Now, most educational sessions originally scheduled for TMC’s 2021 Annual Meeting, and a scaled-down version of TMC’S National Technician Skills Competition — TMCSuperTech — will be held during the 2021 Fall Meeting.

Meanwhile, instead of an in-person annual meeting, TMC on April 12-23 will hold a virtual Spring Meeting without an exhibition component. TMC’s Task Forces, Study Groups and other committees will meet virtually during this time to continue the business of the council, and TMC will offer a full slate of educational programming.

TMC anticipates its event schedule will return to normal next year, when it holds its 2022 Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition March 7-10 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.
