In February, CTS staff introduced about 300 kids to transportation topics at the 15th annual Tech Fest.

The event, held at The Works Museum in Bloomington, Minnesota, is designed for kids ages four and up. It features dozens of hands-on activities and demos related to engineering and technology from the museum and its partners. 

At the CTS booth, visitors took on the challenge of managing traffic congestion by playing Gridlock Buster, an online traffic control game developed by CTS. Kids also explored the Roadway Safety Institute’s permanent exhibit, which teaches visitors about reflectivity and why reflective clothing is critical for being seen by drivers at night.
