: Connecting new professionals in transportation worldwide.
Welcome! YPT Orlando is an inclusive, cross-disciplinary forum for transportation professionals including planners, engineers, and all others engaged in transportation related areas.
We have exciting events planned, including:
Biweekly Lunches: December 13th, @12:00pm
A way to keep up with YPT members! Bring your own lunch or grab something nearby every other Wednesday at the picnic tables found in the southeast corner of Lake Eola Park in Downtown Orlando or Latin Square. No registration required.
If there is inclement weather, plan to meet at Persimmon Hollow on Eola Dr instead.
