Dear friends and colleagues,
EPA and POLIS look forward to welcoming you to the 1st EPA – POLIS webinar on the 6th October 2021 from 11:00-13:00.
The EPA-POLIS 2021/22 series of webinars will be presenting state of the art solutions where the accent will be on the operational, environmental and economic opportunities that are generated by integrated vehicle parking management.
Old dogmas must be overcome to implement innovative mobility services. “New Mobility” doesn’t exist without regulation, control and space management, in other words, “New Mobility” doesn’t just happen on its own and as we will hear, integration with the static part of mobility is key.
Parking space management (fees, controls, regulations and services) is an important link enabling the modal split variation between individual to public transportation or new mobility schemes (eg. EV, loading and unloading bays). Car parks are being rapidly transformed into “Urban Mobility Hubs” connecting and enabling a modal shift of people and goods. Smart Parking solutions (digital connectivity) seamlessly integrate to Smart Mobility and Smart City solutions. The parking sector, with decades of experience in on- and off-street parking, is integrating with all new mobility services facilitating a viable shift to sustainable mobility solutions.
We attach the program that is also available on both the EPA and Polis websites. Participation is free of charge but requires registration at the following link:
