This six-webinar series is being held in conjunction with CTS's 2025 theme of "Unpacking Freight: From Producers to Front Doors." The series is exploring the importance of the freight system to Minnesota and offering a glimpse into how key freight modes work in our state. It features leaders from the overall freight system as well as trucking, aviation, maritime, rail, and urban logistics sharing their thoughts about the opportunities and challenges facing the freight industry.
