2024 CUTA Policy Forum
2024-09-25
Join us for CUTA’s 2024 Policy Forum. We are pleased to provide a platform for some of North America’s leading transit and urban mobility experts to discuss the future of our industry. It is crucial to maintain cross-sector dialogue to keep transit systems running and ready to adapt to change. As the national voice for the Canadian public transit industry, CUTA proudly holds this annual event in our nation’s capital to help advance public transit policy, particularly at the federal level. This year’s event will focus on public transit’s contributions to economic affordability and productivity, regional coordination and integration, and transit’s role in addressing the state of zero-emission transmission readiness across the public transit sector.
