MobilityData participation details

• Date: March 16
• Time: 14:30 – 15:30 CT
• Title: Failing Forward, One Mobility Pilot at a Time
• Moderator: Gretchen Newcomb, MobilityData

Our speakers:

• Jameson Auten, Kansas City Area Transportation Authority
• Kim Lucas, Pittsburgh Dept. of Mobility Innovation
• Gwo-Wei Torng, USDOT Federal Transit Administration

Description: As sustainable mobility moves from ideas and blueprints inspiring the ecosystem, to pilots in real-world scenarios, failure is not only expected but a necessary outcome to move ahead. Hear how the iterative process is implemented and how it is informing projects but also impacting the communities involved in these projects. How does this process inform decision-making among public and private sector stakeholders? Hear examples from city, regional, and Federal leaders implementing mobility pilots and how FTA’s current Enhancing Mobility Innovation program builds on FTA’s existing mobility innovation investments, such as the Mobility on Demand Sandbox, the Accelerating Innovative Mobility Initiative, and the Integrated Mobility Innovation Program.
