ITS Australia's Mobility 2024 conference serves as a pivotal platform for the forefront of mobility innovations, an industry undergoing rapid transformation and contributing significantly to the smart, liveable urban landscapes of today.
Building upon the resounding success of Mobility 2023, this conference will bring together a diverse array of professionals, including industry experts, academics, and government representatives. Together, we explore the cutting-edge developments driving Future Mobility, an industry segment of very real significance within the ITS industry.
The program will delve into essential themes such as ensuring the efficacy of mobility solutions, enhancing the sustainability of transportation, and the comprehensive management of transportation networks, from street-level to the digital cloud. We also explore the horizon of innovative thinking, facilitating seamless mode shifts in transportation, and harnessing the potential of mobility on demand services for diverse populations. Amidst these discussions, we emphasise the significance of human-centric design, the promotion of active transport solutions, and the evolution of frictionless ticketing systems, all while endeavouring to create more inclusive and accessible cities and regions.
Join us at Mobility 2024 for a professional, forward-looking exploration of the mobility landscape, where we don't just talk about the future – we actively shape it together.
