Avego Managing Director, Sean O’Sullivan, will be speaking next week at the 89th annual Transportation Research Board (TRB) meeting in Washington, DC, as part of a workshop titled “Reinventing Carpooling to Meet Transportation’s Greatest Challenges”.
Mr. O’Sullivan is joining other transportation industry luminaries during this three hour workshop, which takes place on January 10th (1.30PM – 4.30PM), to discuss carpooling, vanpooling, ridesharing and the use of mobile devices to enable real-time shared transport.
The workshop will focus on strategies for reshaping the political, policy, and practical framework for carpooling and vanpooling and will be a catalyst for reinvigorating and elevating this modal choice to meet transportation’s greatest challenges: climate change, energy security, traffic congestion, quality of life, environmental damage, and budget constraints.
