Local Councils
MTA works on the local level through its councils, which are located around the state. Monthly meetings are held September-May, where speakers address a variety of safety and equipment topics.
Each council sets its own agenda, events and annual dues to cover meeting expenses. This gives them the flexibility to address topics of interest in their geographic areas while under the leadership of MTA.
Serving the greater Detroit area, the Detroit Chapter Council of Equipment & Maintenance meets to discuss trucking equipment, emerging technologies and new maintenance products and services. Mechanics, technicians and equipment/maintenance-related allied members benefit from the opportunities to network with peers.
