DESCRIPTION:In the 20th Century\, the automobile became the predominant mod
 e of transport in most cities in North America. This has had a wide range 
 of negative environmental and social impacts. However\, transport systems 
 which focus on public transit and “active” transportation (walking and cyc
 ling) are uniquely situated to address a wide range of societal goals incl
 uding reducing GHG and other pollutants at the same time improving populat
 ion health and safety. While cities have begun to embrace a move towards a
  new mobility paradigm\, the path towards sustainable and inclusive transp
 ort systems has a number of technical\, political\, economic\, and societa
 l barriers.\n\nThe Montreal region is currently embarking on multiple larg
 e-scale projects including the REM\, metro expansion\, increasing cycling 
 infrastructure\, while focusing on pedestrian comfort and safety making th
 is a perfect place and time to discuss the future of urban mobility. This 
 all-day event will bring in international and local experts to share ideas
 \, research\, and visions for the future featuring keynote talks and panel
  sessions with key representatives from academia\, industry\, and governme
 nt.\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n	\n	Agenda:\n\n	\n		\n			10:15 – 10:30: Opening Remarks
