Mark your calendar! ATRC is holding another Office Hours session on accessible, autonomous vehicles on June 17 from 1pm-2pm Eastern Time.

This session highlights the goMARTI project (Minnesota’s Accessible Rural Transit Innovations), a first-of-its-kind project testing connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) technology in a rural setting with a winter climate. Centered in Grand Rapids, Minn., goMARTI is a community-driven project focused on providing safe, accessible, and sustainable mobility options through a thoughtfully designed service model.

The presentation will be followed by an opportunity for questions and discussion. Learn more and register here!
