“The conversation around transportation is not just about how we move around,” Audrey DeBarros, executive director of Commuting Solutions, said when introducing this year’s agenda for the summit. “It’s how we integrate new technologies into existing infrastructure, creating options that are equitable and accessible to all and ensuring a sustainable future for everybody.”

The summit will feature a keynote address from Dr. Daniel Sperling, the founding director of the Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of California, Davis, as well as panels comprised of regional industry experts to provide insight into topics that are impacting growing Colorado cities.

The summit will run from 7 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. at University Memorial Center on the CU Boulder campus. Tickets are $110 for members, $125 for non-members. Limited exhibit spaces are available. Additional information about the summit can be found here.
