Transportation First and AI Advantage: Leading the Commonwealth Forward
Transportation First is a Chamber initiative to address the transportation crisis in Massachusetts. Creating a world class transportation system requires policymakers, employers, and residents to recognize that transportation is a public good and should be treated as such urgently. By putting transportation first, the Commonwealth will be in a better position to solve other policy issues which are barriers to the region’s continued growth and prosperity like housing, climate decarbonization and adaption, economic development, economic opportunity, and education access.
The moment calls for a long-term and sustainable mobility funding plan, systemic reform, and a vision for strategic super-investments. This will result in business and job growth across the Commonwealth, timelier and more affordable commutes, more accessible and equitable educational opportunities, lower emissions, livable and more affordable neighborhoods, and inclusive economic development.
The Transportation First series will offer a platform to discuss the urgent crisis Greater Boston faces by bringing in experts in the field as well as changemakers to discuss the issues and talk about what the solutions for the future are.
These events will be free of charge and open to members and non-members.
This event will focus on local transportation modes throughout the City of Boston.
