Center of Excellence on New Mobility and Automated Vehicles

The Center of Excellence on New Mobility and Automated Vehicles will be hosting a facilitated roundtable workshop to discuss coordination, planning, funding, and knowledge needs related to the deployment of new mobility and automated vehicles in Los Angeles County. The workshop is on Tuesday, April 15th on the UCLA Campus. This invitation-only workshop is open to those who: 1) Regularly work on new mobility and/or automated vehicles and/or are charged with interagency coordination at Caltrans District 7, Los Angeles Metro, cities within Los Angeles County, the Southern California Association of Governments, Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach 2) Represent the State of California in automated vehicle and new mobility planning, funding, coordination, or regulation from the California State Transportation Agency, Public Utilities Commission, and Department of Motor Vehicles. 3) Selected representatives of new mobility, automated vehicle, and mobility data firms active in Los Angeles County. The number of workshop attendees will be limited to allow a greater depth of participation from attendees. Those interested in attending the workshop should complete the expression of interest by March 25, 2025. https://lnkd.in/gzcjt7XQ

The Mobility COE is hosting a social reception at the Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board in Washington DC.

In advance of Transportation Research Board (TRB's) annual conference, the #MobilityCOE would like to share this report by the Transportation Research Board National Cooperative Highway Research Program and National Academy of Sciences on micromobility policy. State and local governments have shared interests and differing responsibilities regarding monitoring the public realm. With coordination, permitting, enforcement, monitoring, and emergency management powers, this TRB report provides insight on developing standards and guidance, conducting research initiatives, performing data collection, and promoting micromobility. When considering a multi-modal transportation system, policy guidance is available on the integration between micromobility devices and walking, transit, private cars, taxis, and transportation network companies (TNCs). ??

The Mobility Center of Excellence is made up of six partner organizations in academia, research and the nonprofit space. The center is led by UCLA and includes an intersectional team of researchers from the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science, UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, and the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs, along with the UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies, UCLA Lewis Center for Regional Policy Studies, UCLA Mobility Lab, and The B. John Garrick Institute for the Risk Sciences at UCLA. “Digital connectivity, automation and electrification have dramatically changed the way we transport, both in terms of how people travel and how goods are delivered. We will study the impacts of these new technologies and how they can be better leveraged to improve equitable access to transportation and job participation.” – COE Director Jiaqi Ma, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering at UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science and associate director of the UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies. ??
