Examine how the economy gets moving again with transportation experts—thought leaders in public transit, private innovation, and transportation management—as they share strategies to revise our train, subway, bus, airplane, ferry, and ride-share services. Learn about international experiences from the leading edge of the “new normal”. The panelists will share real-time safety and efficiency solutions and explain how the commuting and traveling experience will progress moving forward.

Transportation is a critical driver of our ability to move the economy and our lives forward. With the easing of COVID-19-related restrictions in Boston, the United States and around the world, all eyes are on how mass and alternative transit systems can operate effectively while ensuring our collective health and safety.

Senior executives with hands-on experience regarding mass and alternative transit crisis strategies regionally, throughout the U.S., and internationally will share their insights on:

• Reengineering transportation systems in a COVID-19 era
• Managing safety, capacity, spacing and sanitation
• Implementing best practices in government and private sector guidance
• Communicating with passengers: education and enforcement
• Addressing liability issues: drivers, employees, and passengers
• Innovating travel: opportunities to grow alternative, sustainable transportation

Join us for this special discussion on how new transportation models will change commuting and travel while moving forward to open our economy.
