2020 Conference on Sustainability and Emerging Transportation Technologies: Abstracts due February 15

TRB invites your attendance and participation in the Sustainability and Emerging Transportation Technology (SETT) Conference on August 31 – September 2, 2020, at the NASEM Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center in Irvine, California. The conference, themed Shaping the Future of Mobility, 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. 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 2020 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. We invite you to submit an abstract for a technical or poster session by February 15, 2020. For more information, contact Bill Anderson at WBAnderson@nas.edu.
