“Transport Equity and Effective Use of Emerging Technologies in Transport”

Carol is President of Schweiger Consulting, has over 42 years of transportation experience, and is nationally and internationally recognized in applying effective and efficient transportation technologies. She has a wide-ranging and in-depth expertise in systems engineering, technology strategies for public agencies (including technology-enabled mobility services and mobility as a service), public transit and paratransit technology and traveler information strategies. She has provided over 75 transportation agencies with technology technical assistance, including developing technology strategies based on needs assessments; developing technical specifications and structured processes to procure and implement technology systems; applying systems engineering to technology projects; providing procurement and implementation assistance; and evaluating technology deployments.

Schweiger developed and delivered (via webinar) seven modules regarding transit technology standards and co-developed and was the lead instructor for five transit technology training courses for the National Transit Institute (NTI). She authored five Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Synthesis reports and authored one and co-authored two full TCRP reports.

Carol has a B.S. in Mathematics from Tufts University and an M.S. in Civil Engineering from Cornell University. She is Co-Chair of the TRB Standing Committee on Innovative Public Transportation Services and Technologies, and participates in many other relevant committees.

Two of the hottest topics being discussed in transportation circles around the globe are (1) the emerging and innovative technologies now being deployed in transport and (2) equitable transportation issues. These newer issues being addressed have been dramatically demonstrated during the past several years when the global transport community began addressing the “disruptions” caused to traditional transport planning and design. While disruptions were being addressed, the pandemic added significantly to this disruption with some transport professionals referring to this situation as being near devastation of transport. Travel behavior radically changed and recovery to a “norm” is still not clearly envisioned. This situation, in turn, led many to examine traditional planning and design of transport systems with the realization that all communities in society did not have the same benefits of accessibility and safety. The need to examine and establish ground rules to address equitable transportation across demographic and economic classes became apparent. These issues were begun to be discussed at the 5th Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility. But now, the 6th Conference is building upon and moving forward with the knowledge of the lessons learned from the past couple years. This Keynote will highlight the latest research and technological innovations being deployed globally by transportation organizations.

The Keynote speaker, Carol Schweiger, has been a strong influential factor in advancing the transportation state of the art through her involvement in a variety of projects conducted for public transport agencies, numerous international technical committees, through speaking engagements and publications. Recently, she organized and moderated at the 2021 ITS World Congress a session entitled “Diverse, Accessible, Equitable and Inclusive Technology-Enabled Mobility” and won the award for Most Popular Special Interest Session out of over 200 sessions at the ITS World Congress. In addition, she organized and moderated two other sessions at the Congress: “ITS Data Generation and Use: How Are We Addressing Societal and Ethical Issues?” and “Equity Assessment of New Mobility Technologies: Current Status.” She has been writing an annual article for Intelligent Transport on her predictions in the area of technology-enabled mobility. Finally, she was named 2022 Woman of the Year by WTS Rhode Island.
