Focused on readying the province for its mobility transformation, the Forum offers a platform for municipalities and public sector agencies to discuss their transportation objectives and collaborate in their goal of preparing for the adoption and implementation of smart mobility technologies.
About the Forum
Ontario Smart Mobility Readiness Forum was created by the Ontario Vehicle Innovation Newtork (OVIN) with the support of Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and Metrolinx. The intent of the Forum is to help prepare Ontario municipalities for the accelerated adoption and deployment of smart and electric mobility technologies by facilitating dialogue, providing resources, identifying challenges and opportunities, and encouraging collaboration amongst municipal stakeholders, including public transit agencies and infrastructure owners and operators.
