2021 Conference on Sustainability and Emerging Transportation Technology

Convened by Transportation Research Board, the Sustainability and Emerging Transportation Technology (SETT) Conference will be held June 29 - July 1, 2021 at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center in Irvine, CA. The conference will address questions around how policy makers, the private sector, and others can work together to support transportation innovations in ways that promote sustainability and benefit all users of the transportation system particularly in terms of public health, equity, and accessibility. Transportation technologies and new approaches to mobility are advancing so rapidly that it can be difficult for policy makers to frame incentives, regulations, and market signals to promote all three pillars of sustainability: equity, the environment, and the economy.

The SETT 2021 conference will bring together researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers to discuss and debate the intersection of sustainability and emerging transportation technologies with a focus on solutions. For more information, contact Bill Anderson at WBAnderson@nas.edu.
