ACT's TDM delegation has arrived in the UK
Transportation planning for large-scale events comes with unique challenges and opportunities. That's why ACT has brought a delegation across the pond in partnership with Modeshift, an organization supporting TDM professionals and organizations in the UK.
Our members in attendance are ready for this one-of-a-kind trip, and we've packed this week with learning opportunities centered on innovative mobility solutions. Whether you're gearing up for sporting events, major concerts, or other large-scale gatherings, we'll be sharing insights throughout the week (and beyond) that will benefit your planning.
Areas of focus include:
- Promoting multi-modal transportation options and TDM
- Leveraging new technologies for trip planning and ridesharing
- Regional coordination and planning
- Role of permitting and local ordinances
- Implementing effective marketing and communications
- Private sector engagement and coordination
Mobility Solutions for Major Events and Venues
From meetings with transportation agencies and leaders to venue visits, networking, and more, there's a lot in store over the next few days. We're thrilled to have partnered with Modeshift to bring our members the takeaways and connections needed to make large-scale event planning a success!
David Straus, ACT Executive Director says, “ACT’s delegation to the UK is an incredible opportunity to learn firsthand from experts who have successfully managed transportation for some of the world’s biggest events. The UK has set a high standard for efficient, sustainable, and accessible mobility, and I’m excited to bring these insights back home to our members to share within their communities. Great appreciation goes out to our friends at Modeshift for hosting us and making this opportunity available to our membership.”
Nick Butler, Modeshift Chief Operating Officer says, "We’re delighted to be able to host our colleagues from ACT and we hugely appreciate the support of Team Modeshift Members from across the UK who are giving up their time to share their experience of managing the movement of spectators for major events. Our purpose is to support, inspire, and champion the work of our Members, so it’s fantastic to be able to champion the work of our Members on a global scale. We’re excited to develop our relationship with ACT as we work together to enhance everyday journeys.”
