Key takeaways from the conversation include:
· The landscape of mobility is rapidly changing as millennial vehicle ownership declines and the desire to live in walkable cities increases
· Curbside is now a critically important “flex space” for cities and must be leveraged with different uses
· Florida is considered a particularly friendly state for autonomous vehicles, culminating in last week’s new state law that allows for self-driving cars to be tested without human safety drivers behind the wheel
· The City of Orlando is developing an “alternative transportation frequent flyer program” to further encourage mass transit use
