Building Infrastructure for the Transportation of Tomorrow

Traffic jams continue to plague cities and commuters, but the problem is more than just sitting in traffic or being late to work. There are safety, security, and sustainability aspects that all lead back to traffic management. In the U.S. alone, traffic deaths have hit a 20-year high, and the numbers continue to increase. Global energy-related carbon emissions also grew to an all-time high of 36.3 gigatonnes in 2021. These numbers are clear indications that cities and communities need better and more intelligent ways to manage traffic, alert pedestrians, and keep their roads and spaces safe. Join our panel of experts as we explore ways cities and governments can be smarter about traffic management, the role electric vehicles play in smart city management, and the ongoing efforts to repair and rebuild roadway infrastructure.
