2023 Urbanism Next Conference
Centering equity in tech-enabled mobility pilots
Location: Oregon Convention Center - C-121
With safety and equity challenges, no established playbooks or data sharing standards, and public private partnerships to navigate, launching technology-enabled mobility innovations in the public right-of-way are daunting undertakings. In this session, practitioners from Via, Rhode Island Department of Transportation, Tech Transit Lab, VHB, and 3x3 will share diverse viewpoints and lessons from the field about research, community engagement, and data-sharing to shape more equitable, responsive, and safe mobility pilots.
CE Credits for APA, AIA, and ASLA, should be available for many sessions and workshops. More information on this will be available shortly.
