State of the Industry Tech Demonstration

N-CATT is excited to announce its first-ever State of the Industry Tech Demonstration. We will gather a small group of transit operators to study goMARTI: an automated vehicle (AV) deployment in a small-town setting. The demonstration aims to help agencies already considering AV deployment get a better understanding of how AVs can work in transit systems to see how or if it would work for their community.

 

We'll cover topics such as:

  • Smart transportation

  • Mobility equity

  • Workforce and education

  • Rural transportation case studies such as the Grand Rapids, MN goMARTI project

  • Future mobility topics such as electric vehicle infrastructure and innovative technologies

  • Policies and programs to support rural innovation

  • ...and more - all with a focus on practical solutions that can help your community thrive.

 

Together, we will leverage the power of technology and transportation to build a brighter future for our rural communities.
