Episode 82 - Creating Equity in Mobility: The Future of Cities with the NYU McSilver Institute

AVs and EVs have the potential to enhance transportation infrastructure in cities across the globe. But before this tech can be implemented, community and business leaders need to work together to create safe, equitable access to the burgeoning technology. The NYU McSilver Institute helps to guide these conversations around implementation while ensuring that historically underserved groups are able to take advantage of the incoming changes in mobility. 

Henry L. Greenidge, Esq., Fellow-in-Residence at the NYU McSilver Institute, discusses the future of mobility in cities, talking challenges on the streets of New York City, how tech innovations and policy can work together, the importance of community engagement and outreach, and how to achieve equitable mobility for all through community collaboration.
