When technology solutions are not accessible to people with disabilities, the solutions are exclusionary. Public and private industries must work with people with disabilities when planning, designing, and implementing smart mobility solutions to make the products and services as accessible as possible. TRB hosted a webinar on Thursday, April 11, 2024 from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM Eastern that presented lived experiences highlighting accessibility issues with modern transportation technology, along with examples of how policies can address these issues. Presenters explored the barriers and opportunities created by transportation technologies and their effect on various communities.
This webinar was sponsored by TRB’s Standing Technical Committees on Information Systems and Technology and Accessible Transportation and Mobility.
The slides are available. Please contact trbwebinar@nas.edu for a link to the recording. There may be a $90 fee.
