Transformative Transportation '22

CATTS - University of Toronto

The annual CATTS symposium is an open event that showcases its current research in the area of transformative transportation systems.

The Centre for Automated and Transformative Transportation Systems (CATTS), University of Toronto, team is inviting you to its 5th annual research day on June 7, 2022. The Centre was established in 2017 with the purpose of quantifying and guiding the transformation of transportation systems in the era of rapid innovations in vehicular technologies and in provisioning of transportation as a service. CATTS is the first research centre of its kind in Canada to address the large-scale impacts of disruptive transportation technologies and services on our cities. It is a multi-disciplinary multi-sector collaboration that gathers academia, industry, technology experts, and the government. The centre’s mission is to guide societal transformation into a positive and sustainable direction, avoid the emergence of counterproductive travel trends, and emboldens Ontario cities as leaders in North America and the world.CATTS is almost done with the first stage of its research, building the analytical foundation of transformative transportation, and is now preparing for its next phase; CATTS Next. In this year’s symposium, our team will report on research progress to date and shed some light on its plan for CATTS Next. This year’s symposium also features special keynote speaker sessions who will share their experiences with Smart Mobility Living Labs.
