December 2, 2021 | 1:00 pm ET

Many modes of transportation are inaccessible, unreliable, or ill-suited to people with disabilities and older adults, which often means fewer opportunities to access employment, housing, healthcare, and education. The Accessible Mobility Collaborative – which includes AVA, ITS America, AARP, CALSTART, Mcity at the University of Michigan, and SAE – was formed to develop a roadmap for solving vehicle and infrastructure accessibility challenges. Please join us for a panel discussion to introduce the roadmap, which includes recommendations for vehicle design language for shared automated vehicles (SAV); digital tools for trip planning; and the potential for integrating and coordinating a design language for both the vehicle and infrastructure.

This virtual panel discussion will be recorded on Thursday, December 2 at 1pm ET in conjunction with the ITS America Annual Meeting, which will take place the following week in Charlotte. It will be available to conference attendees as part of the virtual conference programming during and after the event.

Recording Available Soon.

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.
