This invitation-only, in-person event will contribute to sustainable transportation policy development in Europe. The conference will address challenges to achieving sustainable European transportation systems in the context of evolving EU governance and policy decisions. We will consider climate, energy security, environmental justice, and economic concerns and how these influence transportation investments and choices.
