The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) has launched the 2021 Top Industry Issues Survey.

The annual survey, by the trucking industry’s not-for-profit research organization, asks stakeholders to rank the main issues of concern for the industry along with potential strategies for addressing each issue.

Now in its 17th year, ATRI’s annual analysis not only ranks the issues overall but also provides details on where critical topics are ranked differently by motor carriers and professional drivers. The report also allows stakeholders to monitor issues over time to better understand which issues are rising, or falling, in criticality.

“Completing this survey only takes a few minutes, but its impact can be immeasurable,” said ATA Chair Sherri Garner Brumbaugh, President and CEO of Garner Transportation Group.

“The data ATRI provides will chart the course for the industry by providing a clear picture of the landscape we face.”

The results of the 2021 survey will be released on October 24, 2021, as part of the American Trucking Associations Management Conference & Exhibition to be held in Nashville, Tennessee.

Industry stakeholders are encouraged to complete the survey on the ATRI website. The survey will be open until October 15, 2021.
