SUMMARY:Webinar: Dynamic Streets\, Curbs\, and Sidewalks in COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Previous plans to expand bike networks and more space for pedestrians are being fast-tracked as stay-at-home orders for COVID-19 demand more room for people to adequately practice social distancing while remaining active and making trips for essential goods and services. As cities move quickly\, it is important for them to have tools to rapidly create these new policies and communicate them easily to mobility operators and the public. Cities across the world\, from Oakland to Denver to Milan to Paris\, are moving to free up more space for pedestrians and cyclists\, often by accelerating existing plans. This webinar will discuss how cities are taking action and how new digital tools can support more dynamic management of their streets\, curbs\, and sidewalks. \nSpeakers:\nRodney Stiles\, Head of Policy\, Populus\nPaul Lewis\, Vice President of Policy and Finance\, Eno Center for Transportation \n\nAs the Head of Policy at Populus\, Rodney leads development of the team’s policy agenda\, communications\, and relationships with cities around the world. Previously\, he worked at the New York Taxi and Limousine Commission where he led taxi and ride-hail policy and data reporting. He also worked as a demographer for the New York City Department of Planning\, developing solutions to help the city plan for its future. His interests include walking\, biking\, and data visualization. He is a 2009 graduate of the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University. \nDownload the Slides \nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: Geofencing and the Potential of Connected Vehicles
DESCRIPTION:Full obedience of traffic rules and regulations and the ability to dynamically change them\, depending on the current situation in a city or on a motorway\, would enable a completely new toolbox for traffic planners. In Sweden\, dynamic environmental zones that are triggered by thresholds in air pollution or digitally-enforced speed regulations outside schools are currently be tested. To a large extent\, the technology is already available and the Swedish Transport Administration is working together with the city of Gothenburg and Stockholm to develop the ability to deliver traffic rules and regulations digitally to connected vehicles through a national road database. This webinar will discuss current and future applications of geofencing technology and what capabilities that will be needed from transport authorities in order to make full use of its potential. \nSpeakers:\nJohannes Berg\, Senior Adviser for Digitalization of the Transport System\, Swedish Transport Administration\nAlice Grossman\, Ph.D.\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \n\nJohannes Berg is Program Manager for a four-year R&D platform on geofencing at the Swedish Transport Administration. The platform gathers key actors from the public sector\, car industry\, tech industry\, and academia with the aim of promoting a full-scale implementation of geofencing in Sweden and the Nordic countries. Johannes previously served as Project Manager for Smart City projects in the city of Stockholm and as a Senior Adviser at the ministry of enterprises expert authority Transport Analysis\, where he initiated the first Swedish simulations studies on the impacts of autonomous vehicles. \nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Adoption and Travel Impacts of Teleworking: Will It Be Different This Time?
DESCRIPTION:From Alvin Toffler’s (1980) “electronic cottage\,” to Peter Drucker’s (1993) declaration that commuting to an office was obsolete\, through countless disruptions ever since\, people have predicted the widespread adoption of working from home\, with concomitant benefits to congestion\, fuel consumption\, and emissions.  Yet while telecommuting has seen steady growth in the “information era\,” overall levels have remained modest—until recently\, when the COVID-19 pandemic has forced its adoption on an unprecedented scale.  What will happen when it is safe to go back to the office?  Will managers and staff alike embrace the benefits of working from home\, or will it be back to business as usual? This webinar offers a snapshot of the present\, reviews past research and experience on the adoption and travel-related impacts of telecommuting and reflects on future implications for transportation. \nSpeakers:\nPatricia Mokhtarian\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering\, Georgia Institute of Technology\nAlice Grossman\, Ph.D.\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \n\nPatricia Mokhtarian is the Susan G. and Christopher D. Pappas Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Webinar: How Disruptions to Our Transportation System Can Impact Food Supply
DESCRIPTION:Immediate concerns about the ability of the food supply chain to meet customer demand have abated following the initial wave of panic buying\, but concerns remain for the coming year. As the reported cases among meat packers and food processers have highlighted\, one concern that will stay with us and probably increase as society reopens is the availability of workers\, from the farm through processing to the grocery store or restaurant. Transportation is the vital link between all these segments. This webinar will focus on how disruptions to transportation\, particularly within the trucking labor force\, could rise to an industry-level problem. \nSpeakers:\nAndrew Novakovic\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Agricultural Economics\, Director of Land Grant Programs; Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University \nRomic Aevaz\, Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \n\nAndrew Novakovic is a professor of agricultural economics at Cornell University and director of Land Grant Programs for the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Congestion Pricing in the United States
DESCRIPTION:This webinar summarizes Eno’s latest research report titled Congestion Pricing in the United States: Principles for Developing a Viable Program to Advance Sustainability and Equity Goals. \nThere is no silver bullet to fix the woes of urban mobility and access\, but congestion pricing is a proven\, viable\, and effective tool. Charging a fee for the parts of the roadway network used the most during the busiest times of day reduces demand. The charges incentivize travelers to switch to other modes of transportation\, seek alternative routes\, or travel at other times. The charges can help to reduce negative effects of traffic such as air pollution\, carbon emissions\, road damage\, and traffic crashes. This webinar will outline Eno’s latest research report discussing how to address the most significant barriers to congestion pricing today: the political\, institutional\, and communication hurdles. \nSpeakers:\nBrianne Eby\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\nRobert Puentes\, President and CEO\, Eno Center for Transportation\nMartha Roskowski\, Principal\, Further Strategies \nDownload the Slides \nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Road to Recovery Webinar: The Federal Role in Transit's COVID Recovery
DESCRIPTION:Public transportation has been hit particularly hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. The stay at home orders have dramatically reduced ridership\, fares\, and tax revenues\, while the ongoing health concerns about the virus make a return to normal timeline far from certain. Meanwhile\, public transportation has demonstrated its value as an essential service during the pandemic\, and it will remain essential for an economic recovery. The federal government has recognized this\, providing $25B in emergency funding in the CARES Act that for the first time included flexibility to spend on operations. As we transition from pandemic response to recovery\, what role will the federal government play in keeping public transportation moving? This webinar will dive into the question: What does federal policy look like in a recovery for transit? \nSpeakers:\nRobert Puentes\, President and CEO\, Eno Center for Transportation\nChristopher Pangilinan\, Head of Global Policy\, Public Transportation\, Uber\nGrace Crunican\, Former General Manager\, BART\nDarnell Grisby\, Director of Policy Development and Research\, APTA \n\nWatch the Recording:\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Road to Recovery Webinar: More Than Meets the Eye: Density and Transportation During COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:The impacts of density on the COVID-19 pandemic are currently the center of attention in public opinion\, policy decisions\, and planning practice. The concerns and assumptions surrounding density challenge the foundation of modern cities and have immediate implications for transportation expenditures\, urban redevelopment\, tax policy\, congestion pricing\, smart growth\, and affordable housing. However\, a recent study titled “Does Density Aggravate the COVID-19 Pandemic” suggests quite the opposite. The authors found that density is not linked to rates of COVID-19 infections and that COVID-19 death rates are lower in denser countries and higher in less dense ones. In this webinar\, we will discuss the study’s findings on density and COVID-19 and their implications for transportation\, urban planning\, and more. \nSpeakers:\nShima Hamidi\, Bloomberg Assistant Professor of American Health\, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health\nReid Ewing\, Professor of City and Metropolitan Planning\, University of Utah\nSadegh Sabouri\, Ph.D. Research Assistant\, University of Utah\nRobert Puentes\, President and CEO\, Eno Center for Transportation  \nDownload the Slides \nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: State of the Industry: Freight Rail in 2020
DESCRIPTION:The impact of COVID-19 on consumer-facing industries\, like aviation or retail\, has received great coverage in the press and in the public consciousness. Less-publicized — but still significant — are the impacts the virus and the subsequent economic shutdowns have had on business-to-business industries like freight rail. The freight rail industry continues to operate throughout the pandemic\, but it faces significant challenges due to fluctuating demand — particularly for key traffic drivers like automobiles and energy. \nWhile COVID-19 upset the industry’s status quo\, operations continue with the industry adapting to keep traffic moving\, meet customers’ evolving needs\, and seize opportunities that became apparent during the pandemic. While some of these adaptations are temporary\, others will drive lasting changes in behavior both among railroads and their customers. In this webinar\, Ian Jefferies\, President and CEO of the Association of American Railroads\, will outline the state of the freight rail industry post-COVID\, where the industry is headed\, and what the direction of the industry can reveal about the broader economy. \nSpeakers:\nIan Jefferies\, President and CEO\, Association of American Railroads\nPaul Lewis\, Vice President of Policy and Finance\, Eno Center for Transportation \nWatch the Recording:\n \n\nAs AAR’s President and CEO\, Jefferies advocates for and works with member railroads to ensure the long-term viability of America’s railroad industry. Jefferies has more than a decade of experience working in government. From 2009 to 2013\, he served as a Senior Policy Advisor to the Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce\, Science and Transportation\, and from 2013-2019 he was AAR’s Senior Vice President of Government Affairs.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Congestion Pricing’s Role in Building More Equitable Transportation Systems
DESCRIPTION:Congestion pricing is an idea that has broad support from transportation practitioners. However\, many elected officials and members of the general public are skeptical that these charges\, which would apply to drivers on the busiest roads during the busiest times of day\, are regressive fees.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Best Practices for Incorporating Equity into Performance-Based Processes
DESCRIPTION:Recent events have further highlighted the systemic inequities built into American society\, and our transportation infrastructure is no exception. People of color consistently experience worse mobility outcomes than white people\, with longer and more difficult trips to access employment and other critical needs. These barriers have a major impact on economic stability and wealth accrual. To rectify these problems\, the transportation sector needs to integrate equity into its methods for allocating resources. This webinar will highlight research published in a recent American Planning Association Planning Advisory Services Memo on using equity-oriented performance measures in transportation planning\, documenting current methods in practice\, and suggesting approaches for improvement. \nSpeakers:\nAudrey Wennink\, Director of Transportation\, Metropolitan Planning Council of Chicago\nBrianne Eby\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \nDownload the Slides \nWatch the Recording:\n \n\nAudrey is the Director of Transportation for the Metropolitan Planning Council in Chicago\, a nonprofit organization that conducts policy research and advocacy on urban planning issues in the region.  Her work includes pursuing sustainable funding for transportation in Illinois\, increasing support of sustainable forms of transportation\, integration of performance-based planning methods into transportation practice\, and developing efforts to boost transportation equity. She coordinates transportation initiatives with other facets of planning including affordable housing\, land use\, equity and the environment.  Her team has partnered on development of a series of equity-oriented transportation research products and tools including a qualitative study of Black and Brown transportation users’ experience and a toolbox for employers to support worker transportation. Under her leadership\, MPC developed the Toward Universal Mobility report defining needed improvements to the Chicago region’s transportation system to benefit people with disabilities and seniors. MPC’s Transit Means Business report helped support advocacy for the state’s 2019 gas tax increase that now provides dedicated capital funding for transit in Illinois. Prior to her current position she was a transportation planning consultant for more than a decade.
