Webinar: Objective-Driven Data Sharing for Transit Agencies in Mobility Partnerships, 2019

Advanced technologies are fueling the growth of app-enabled mobility service providers. Transit agencies and cities have looked to partnerships with these new providers—Mobility on Demand (MOD) solutions—to enhance their public transit services. A primary challenge for transit agencies in implementing Mobility on Demand (MOD) solutions has been reaching an agreement between the public and private partners over data sharing.

Drawing on lessons learned from the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) MOD Sandbox program and beyond, this webinar aims to help transit agencies overcome this hurdle by determining the right data-sharing approach for their project and considering the benefits and trade-offs of various options.

The webinar supports a SUMC white paper by the same name that details current data-sharing practices and real-world scenarios, aiming to give agencies a guide on establishing mobility partnerships with local operators.

Webinar presenters include:

• Sharon, Feigon, Executive Director, Shared-Use Mobility Center
• Prashanth Gururaja, Program Director, Shared-Use Mobility Center
• Rudy Faust, Project Associate, Shared-Use Mobility Center
• Murat Omay, Senior Program Manager-Intelligent Mobility, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), Integrated Mobility Performance, Federal Transit Administration
• Rik Opstelten, Mobility Innovation Program Analyst, Federal Transit Administration
