The leaves are beginning to turn, and it reminds us that change is inevitable. Change brings opportunity.

Training her will help us remember what is important to assist the highway and public works departments across New York State.
Fall (or autumn if you prefer) is also a time to finish up projects before winter. We are halfway through our fall training season and preparing for the Conference on Local Bridges. We hope to see you at one or more of our workshops or the Bridge Conference. Now is the time to finish up those projects you had planned for 2022.
For us here in Ithaca, autumn is also a time of beginning as our fiscal year starts on October 1. With that comes a new work plan for the next twelve months. A rebuilt workshop on legal liability and risk will be part of next year's workshop schedule. We will be restarting our foundational webinar series toward the end of fall and are beginning preparations for the 2023 Highway School here in Ithaca, June 5-7, 2023. As you put away the equipment for the summer and get ready for winter, think about your projects for 2023. It is never too early to plan.
