ACEC/MA's Transportation Agencies Liaison Committee (TALC) works closely with public transportation agencies to streamline and improve project delivery.
TALC usually meets monthly on the 3rd or 4th Wednesday of the month at lunchtime in Boston.The cost of lunch is hosted by one member firm each month, as assigned by TECET staff, so that each member firm with employees on the TALC list pays for the cost of the sandwich lunch about once every 3-4 years, even if the employees from that firm are not in attendance.
Due to the size of the committee, with about 250 individual members as of May 1, 2017, TALC meeting attendance is limited to one person per ACEC/MA Member Firm, plus ACEC/MA Board members. All TALC member receive emails on transportation issues and are invited to participate in conference calls.
