We’d like to promote the above workshop series being delivered by Harmonize Mobility/ Trip Convergence, which may be of interest to you. View the event flyer here.

Transportation in our cities is on the verge of an extraordinary revolution. New ride services such as Uber are growing, while vehicle connectivity and automation technology are rapidly developing. But with rumours and speculation filling the air, city leaders and planners face a minefield of contradictory predictions and extraordinary promises for the future of transportation.

This New Mobility Workshop is designed to prepare city leaders, transportation and land use planners, entrepreneurs, future thinking citizens, and anyone who has responsibilities in transportation decision-making for significant coming changes to mobility. The focus of the workshop is on planning for both short and long-range evolutionary impacts of ride hailing, Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), and vehicle automation from both general and local planning perspectives in order to prepare cities and communities for transformation.

The first workshop is in Auckland on 2 August 2018. Click here to read more and register.
