China Highway and Transportation Society and TRB are jointly convening a U.S.-China Mobility Management Meeting on August 26, 2020 online. The theme is "Transit linkages with new mobility and micromobility, and the survival of both post COVID-19."
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has caused a severe decline in public ridership worldwide. This decline on ridership is on top of the slow ridership declines that have been witnessed over the past decade almost everywhere in the US. Meanwhile, ride-hailing and micromobility companies which were rapidly expanding over the past decade, faced almost as precipitous declines during the pandemic. How can these industries survive the ridership decline? Is there a policy or technology solution that responds to all three industries? Are partnerships the solution? How important are common platforms? Will COVID-19 cause driverless vehicles to arrive earlier and how will their arrival change the trajectory of these industries?
