The Great Exchange on Transportation is a non-sponsored, grass roots initiative that will focus all of Gwinnett on transportation for one week in late August. We are not asking folks to educate, advocate, or even indoctrinate folks on transportation rather we hope to captivate individuals so that they feel free to express their thoughts, ideas, concerns and opinions on transportation in Gwinnett. The goal is to simply have “high level” conversations about transportation and how it effects our quality of life. The goal is to engage you about joining the conversation on transportation and “texting” their thoughts, ideas, and opinions to some questions. It’s that simple.
