Abstract:Institutions, the rules guiding transportation planning and investments, are difficult and slow to change. The goal of this white paper was to provide public, private, and non-profit sectors an overview of why change is difficult and concrete ways in which policymakers can support and guide changing the rules to leverage innovations for a safer, cleaner and more equitable transportation sector. Problem Statement: New transportation technologies, like shared mobility and connected and autonomous vehicles are advancing rapidly, often more rapidly than governments can adapt and plan regulations. Yet, governments must be proactive if new technologies are to significantly contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and expand people’s access to opportunities. There is a significant need to understand how governments can intervene, and the steps they can take to increase responsiveness to change.
