The Community Transport sector has many moving parts, all with a similar goal of fulfilling a need for moving people within our communities. It is a vital, well-intentioned patchwork of service provision that could benefit significantly from a more coordinated approach and innovation.
We now have technology and data available that can help us achieve this, but many organisations are struggling to work out how to proceed or find funding for projects.
This webinar is a presentation and discussion based on the findings of a recently completed ITS Australia and iMOVE Australia, multi-state study that analyses the Community Transport Sector and identities ways in which it can work better. It will bring together perspectives from the transport industry, service providers and users to investigate pathways to more equitable and accessible transport for our communities.
Areas we will touch on include:
- How to improve accessibility of Community Transport
- Opportunities for better allocation of resources
- Where partnering opportunities exist for organisations
We encourage anyone with an interest in this area to join us and have a voice about this important topic.
