Between 2 Futures

June 4, 2020 | 2:00–3:00 pm EDTPresented by: Stan Caldwell, Huei Peng, Susan Shaheen, and Greg Winfree

Traffic is down – so is transit ridership. Walking and bicycling are up – for now. What is transportation’s post COVID-19 roadmap, and how do we deploy technology as we build the transportation system of the 21st century?

ITS America was founded on the premise that technology would improve transportation – from traffic management centers reducing congestion to life-saving technologies that allow vehicles to communicate with each other and the infrastructure. Join us as we talk about these and other critical issues with leading transportation and mobility researchers as part of our “Between Two Futures – How We Map Toward Safer, Greener, Smarter Transportation” series

Let’s Transform the Future Together.

Technology evolves faster than we can imagine the future. Rapidly evolving transportation innovations are being developed and deployed that promise to entirely reshape the way our transportation network operates, facilitating vast improvements to transportation safety and overall mobility. The promise of these innovations is apparent, but the deployment and application of these technologies is not without challenges. While technology disrupts the transportation ecosystem with new innovations and ideas, government, communities, private companies, and researchers must race to catch up to and contend with ideas never thought possible. How do we accelerate change and safely embrace new technology while promoting collaboration across industry to advance shared societal goals? Through nonprofits like the Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America).

ITS America and its members have been at the center of these innovations, advocating for transformational technology to save lives, promote sustainability, and improve access to mobility.

Join us.

As advocates for transportation innovation throughout the world’s largest transportation network, ITS America’s public, private and academic members are dedicated to championing smart mobility strategies to ensure safe and thriving communities.
