Municipal fleet managers can learn about sustainable transportation options at the 21st annual AltWheels Fleet Day event on Oct. 7 in Norwood.

The day-long event will feature speakers, ride and drive opportunities, exhibitor booths, networking, and educational panels and presentations on the latest alternative fuel and infrastructure options.

The MMA is a co-host, along with the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, the New England Chapter of the American Public Works Association, Massachusetts Clean Cities, Mass Mobility Hub, and the state’s MOR-EV program, among others.

General admission to the event is $125 for those who register by Sept. 15. Starting on Sept. 16, the late admission fee is $140. The admission fee covers parking, breakfast, lunch, and a cocktail hour, as well as access to panels, exhibits and ride and drives from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The event will be held at the Four Points by Sheraton in Norwood.

Started in 2003, the nonprofit AltWheels seeks to build a sustainable transportation and energy vision by “showcasing vehicle and fuel technologies, educating passenger and fleet consumers on best practices, promoting real choices that exist in the marketplace, and stimulating the demand for choices that will improve our health, air quality, and survival.”

Last year’s Fleet Day drew 300 attendees, 30 speakers and representatives from nine states, and included 32 fleets and 26 vehicles in the vehicle showcase.
