The Future of Mobility in a Smart City

Transport and mobility sit at the heart of many debates: new technology use, tackling climate change and public sector investment to name a few.

However, that agenda has altered significantly over recent months with COVID-19 upending traditional transportation patterns. During this session we speak to experts in the sector to discover:

  • What are the future plans for mobility in a post-COVID-19 world?
  • What new technologies can we use that are smart, safe and environmentally friendly?
  • What will the impact be on the environment of changing mobility patterns?
  • Will working from home change mobility forever?
