DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has highlighted both the value of home delivery and contactless service. Automated vehicles (AV) could potentially enable both. Behind the scenes\, companies are working to develop the technology to enable AV deliveries. Although widespread deployment is at least a few years away\, such a service could have dramatic effects on local commerce and transportation\, particularly since 45 percent of household trips are for groceries and errands. Join Eno for a discussion about the future of AV deliveries\, featuring a presentation of an independent study that focused on the possible economic impacts of delivery AVs by the Steer Group with insights from AV delivery company Nuro. \nSpeakers:\nMatthew Lipka\, Head of Policy\, Nuro\nAlia Verloes\, Principal Consultant – New Mobility Market Leader (North America)\, Steer\nPaul Lewis\, Vice President of Policy and Finance\, Eno Center for Transportation \nAccess the Research Report\nDownload the Slides\nWatch the Recording:\n\n\n\n\nMatthew Lipka is Head of Policy at Nuro\, a robotics company building and deploying fully autonomous\, on-road vehicles in a last-mile delivery service.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Ballots for Buses: Local Option Transportation Sales Taxes in California
DESCRIPTION:California counties have held nearly 100 elections over four decades to consider imposing local option sales taxes (LOSTs) to fund transportation programs. Most LOST propositions have been successful even when they required a two-thirds supermajority\, and when other tax-related measures have failed badly. This webinar will review the history of these measures\, present their major characteristics\, their political implications\, and examine how counties balance accountability to the voters against the need for flexibility to meet changing conditions. The authors have created a database containing information on failed and approved transportation LOSTs in the state and will describe how it can be accessed and used by researchers and practitioners. \nSpeakers:\nMartin Wachs\, Founding Director\, Institute of Transportation Studies and the University of California Transportation Center\nJeremy Marks\, Master of Urban and Regional Planning\, UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies\nRomic Aevaz\, Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\n \nAccess the Database\nDownload the Slides\nWatch the Recording:\n \n\nMartin Wachs is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Civil & Environmental Engineering and of City & Regional Planning at the University of California\, Berkeley\, where he directed the Institute of Transportation Studies and the University of California Transportation Center.

SUMMARY:Webinar: MOD Fare Integration for Transit
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is an overview of MOD Fare Integration for Transit: A Case Study in the Los Angeles and Puget Sound Regions\, which is the third paper in our research report series examining the FTA Mobility on Demand Sandbox project in the Los Angeles and Puget Sound Regions. Check out the full report here.  \nPublic transit services in most metropolitan areas in the United States are highly fragmented among multiple modes and providers with various methods of payment. With private mobility services like transportation network companies (TNCs) playing a significant role in many journeys\, the landscape of payment systems is growing more complex. Because of this\, the integration of fare payment systems on public transit is increasingly important for efficiency\, reliability\, customer satisfaction\, multimodal trip planning\, tracking ridership\, and collecting revenue. In this webinar\, we’ll discuss Eno’s recommendations for the FTA\, transit agencies\, and private mobility companies to consider before embarking on partnerships involving fare payment and potential integration. \nSpeakers:\nRomic Aevaz\, Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\nAlice Grossman\, PhD\, Science & Technology Policy Fellow\, American Association for the Advancement of Science; Former Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\nPaul Lewis\, Vice President of Policy and Finance\, Eno Center for Transportation \nDownload the Slides\nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: A Century of Fighting Traffic Congestion in Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:The Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro) is studying congestion pricing to manage the region’s heavy traffic and unpredictable travel times. We examined a century of programs to reduce congestion and found that several strategies were pursued over and over again in different eras. Los Angeles repeatedly built new street\, highway\, and transit capacity\, regulated drivers and vehicle traffic flows\, increased the use of information about traffic conditions\, and controlled land use to influence traffic. Road pricing was proposed a century ago but not implemented and congestion grew despite these many efforts. In this webinar\, learn how current studies are promising and can be informed by lessons learned from past congestion policies. \nSpeakers:\nMartin Wachs\, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Civil and Environmental Engineering and City and Regional Planning\, University of California\nPeter Sebastian Chesney\, Ph.D Candidate and Fellow at the Center for History and Policy\, University of California\nYu Hong Hwang\, Master’s Candidate in Urban and Regional Planning\, University of California\nJeff Davis\, Senior Fellow\, Eno Center for Transportation \nAccess the Research Report\nDownload the Slides\nWatch the Recording:\n\n\nMartin Wachs is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Civil & Environmental Engineering and of City & Regional Planning at the University of California\, Berkeley\, where he directed the Institute of Transportation Studies and the University of California Transportation Center.

SUMMARY:Webinar: What Counts in Mobility? Rethinking Transportation Modeling
DESCRIPTION:Transportation models predict the traffic volume of a given bridge\, highway\, or train and allow decision-makers to make more informed decisions about transportation projects and funding allocations that have major implications on the current and future landscape. However\, transportation models are an unfamiliar concept to most people outside of the industry. What if transportation advocates better understood how to use this tool to advocate for a more sustainable future and better transportation options? “What Counts in Mobility” attempts to demystify some of the technical aspects of transportation modeling by breaking down the relationship between modeling and decision-making and presenting recommendations on improvements to the model and the transportation planning process. \nSpeakers:\nAmbar Johnson\, Program Director\, LivableStreets Alliance\nBrianne Eby\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \nDownload the Slides\nAccess the Research Report\nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: Transportation at the Ballot Box: CalTrain Sales Tax Measure
DESCRIPTION:The Eno Center for Transportation does not endorse or oppose specific ballot measures. The information is provided for research and informational purposes only. \n\nOn November 3\, in addition to the Presidential race and a slew of gubernatorial\, state legislative\, and mayoral elections\, voters across the country will weigh in on dozens of transportation-related ballot measures. Among the major transportation measures on the ballot this year is a 1/8 cent sales tax measure in San Francisco\, San Mateo\, and Santa Clara counties. If passed\, the measure will provide a dedicated revenue source to fund CalTrain service and equity investments to improve the system’s accessibility and affordability. \nIn this webinar\, Seamus Murphy will provide an overview of the measure and detail how Caltrain would utilize the revenue stream if approved. Adina Levin will discuss advocacy efforts around the measure and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the dynamics of campaigning. \nSpeakers:\nSeamus Murphy\, Chief Communications Officer\, San Mateo County Transit District\nAdina Levin\, Executive Director\, Friends of Caltrain\nRomic Aevaz\, Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \nWatch the Recording:\n\n\nSeamus Murphy is the Chief Communications Officer for SamTrans\, Caltrain and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Toward Universal Access
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is an overview of Toward Universal Access: A Case Study in the Los Angeles and Puget Sound Regions\, which is the fourth paper in our research report series examining the FTA Mobility on Demand Sandbox project in the Los Angeles and Puget Sound Regions. Check out the full research report here.  \nApproximately 61 million U.S. adults—one quarter of the adult population—live with some form of disability. Through the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)\, transportation organizations must aim to provide equal access to mobility for people with disabilities. However\, equal access under the law does not always lead to access to the same services. Based on the FTA Mobility on Demand pilot project in the Los Angeles and Puget Sound Regions\, Eno has created a set of recommendations for transit agencies and private providers on how to go beyond the ADA and improve access for all users. In this webinar\, the report authors will discuss the study\, assessment\, and access to mobility options for all users with findings from the pilot project. \nSpeakers: \nAlice Grossman\, Ph.D.\, Science & Technology Policy Fellow\, American Association for the Advancement of Science; Former Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\nKatherine Idziorek\, Ph.D. Candidate in Urban Design and Planning\, University of Washington; 2020 Thomas J.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Transit Governance Reform: Examples from Baltimore\, Minneapolis\, and Boston
DESCRIPTION:There is no one perfect model for public transit governance and finance in the United States. However\, in several places\, officials are reexamining how decisions about investments and operations are made and whether they respond to the needs of transit riders and workers and the local economy. While much of the nation’s transit is delivered by special purpose regional transit agencies with important local authority\, in others the state plays the dominant role to varying effects. For example\, a recent Eno report on metropolitan Baltimore laid out several options for delivering better services through greater local input\, oversight\, and authority. In this webinar we will discuss potential ways to balance state and local input on transit decision-making by exploring new and ongoing reform options in the Baltimore\, Boston\, and Minneapolis-St. Paul regions. \nSpeakers:\nJim McDonough\, Commissioner\, District 6 in Ramsey County\, Minnesota\nMonica Tibbits-Nutt\, FMCB Vice Chair\, Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority\nBrianne Eby\, Senior Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation\nPaul Lewis\, Vice President of Policy and Finance\, Eno Center for Transportation \nWatch the Recording:

SUMMARY:Webinar: Form and Function: The Role and Future of Complete Streets Post-COVID
DESCRIPTION:“Complete streets” is a design approach intended to accommodate a variety of modes of transportation and has been shown to reduce motor vehicle-related crashes\, minimize risks for pedestrians and cyclists\, and promote active modes of travel. In response to COVID-19\, many cities have adopted some complete streets approaches\, including reconfigured public roads for better social distancing\, permits for curbside pickup\, and allowed local businesses to operate on sidewalks\, parking spaces\, and roadways. \nWith a pandemic recovery on the horizon\, will cities continue these complete streets initiatives? What is the role of advocacy\, policy\, and data in better understanding complete streets and their effects on the broader transportation system? This webinar will discuss the impacts of the pandemic on street use\, the importance of equity in planning and design\, and what might be next for complete streets in the wake of COVID-19 and a new administration. \nSpeakers:\nDave Ederer\, PhD\, Recent PhD Graduate in Transportation Systems Engineering\, Georgia Tech\nKhristian Gutierrez\, Chief Revenue Officer\, Passport\nJana Lynott\, AICP\, MP\, Senior Strategic Policy Advisor\, AARP\nRomic Aevaz\, Policy Analyst\, Eno Center for Transportation \nWatch the Recording:\n\n\nDave Ederer recently completed his PhD in Transportation Systems Engineering at Georgia Tech in the Urban Transportation Information Lab\, led by Dr. Kari Watkins.
