Welcome to Idea Factory of the New Mobility Agenda . It offers a free, public, flexible discussion space for those who feel that our transport systems need to be, and can be made to be, more sustainable and more just -- and who wish to freely exchange ideas and information about it. Best way to access this forum? Via the main New Mobility Agenda site. Under the heading Talking New Mobility, you will see a number of other useful sources of information and perspective on our topic. Welcoming Note: First-time visitors are warmly invited to read the Welcoming Note. This forum is monitored to ensure that the exchanges stay on focus. It is also fully searchable -- see the guidelines here for hints on how to do this. Email overload? No problem. Go to “Edit Membership” just above here and put yourself down for the Daily Digest, preferably in their quite nice “Fully Featured” version.
