Cities are struggling to keep up with how to respond and regulate new tech.


Tech will introduces many unintended consequences.


Cities are combating issues we’ve already created in our public right-of-way.


Preparing today for a human-centered city will ensure the outcomes we want for our communities.

TRANSPORTATION HAPPINESS

Taking a human-centered approach requires thinking about ALL people.

A VISION FOR LA

TRANSPORTATION TECH STRATEGY

Establishing a shared vision for the future will guide policy, programs and the tech for better outcomes.


The city as a platform, the department as mobility manager, and community as partners.


Envisions a combination of policy, urban design and planning, and experimentation to effect positive change

MEASURING FOR SUCCESS

TransportationHappiness


The status quo isn’t working.


We must go beyond appealing to the greater good to transform mobility behavior.

Produced by Discourse Media, data by George Poulos.


Driving is the most stressful mode of commuting.


Americans spend, on average, about 75 minutes on daily trips.


Cycling to work was associated with a 41% lower risk of dying overall compared to commuting by car or public transport. (2017)


Understanding user experience is critical to a more human-centered approach to urban mobility.


Quality is an issue of equity.


We can do so much more to improve user experience today.


How might our changing population reshape our neighborhoods?


How might we rebalance our public right-of-way to ensure a more equitable, quality experience?


How do we overcome politics to more quickly address mobility needs?


Quality of service is the strongest determinant of bus ridership.Mineta Transportation Institute

Start with two of the most data-rich modes.**With easily accessible data.


Build upon the data you already have.**Cities have a ton of data already.


Applying insights to how we work is essential.**Change is hard but not impossible.


The only responsible course for public transit leaders is continuous, rider-focused service improvementand urban policy that ensures equitable, quality transit access.Transit Center, 2019


Not surprisingly, what’s new really isn’t.


Let’s benchmark today for a future more like this:

DEFINING SMART CITIES

A smart city is not an end state but a process of redefining how we live, work and play as enabled by technology.
