When we adopt new and innovative approaches to mobility, Nico Larco says we should pull back the curtain first. As the Co-Director of the Sustainable Cities Initiative at the University of Oregon, Larco helps public and private entities understand the potential impacts of autonomous vehicles, electric vehicles, and ecommerce on cities. In this wide-ranging discussion, Larco describes how he evaluates these technologies as transportation issues in order to understand their secondary impacts on health, livability, and housing.

Autonomous vehicles and buzzy transportation tech might be exciting, but a well-managed city - a truly smart city - knows what matters to its constituents.In this episode Mayor Jake Spano of St. Louis Park, Minnesota joins BB&K Greg and Eno Greg for a lively discussion about livability, regional collaboration, and the real-world, day-to-day challenges that cities address every day.Mayor Spano says that citizens understand the true impacts of their local government's decisions and how money is spent. Residents notice when the trash isn't taken out, the snow isn't plowed, or when a pothole isn't fixed - which is why he focuses on the important daily operations of the city while also planning wisely for the future.**A special thanks to Brittney Kohler and the National League of Cities for inviting us to speak and the opportunity to record these episodes with innovative city leaders.**Keep up with us on LinkedIn: The Mobility Podcast Greg Rogers Greg Rodriguez Pete Gould Samantha Roxas Or find us on Twitter: The Mobility Podcast @MobilityPodcast Greg Rogers @MoveGreg Pete Gould @Pete_Gould Greg Rodriguez @SmarterTranspo Samantha Roxas @SamanthaRoxas

Eno Greg and BB&K Greg take a deep dive into the U.S. Department of Transportation's (USDOT) work on preparing version 3.0 of the federal policy document on automated vehicles, recent rumors that NHTSA's vehicle-to-vehicle mandate may now be on the backburner, and the implementation of President Trump's memo on the Drone Integration Pilot Program.Slated for release in 2018, it will cover not only how AVs can be safely designed - but how automation technology can be integrated into public transit networks, commercial vehicles, and all other forms of on-road vehicles. This will go beyond the Obama Administration's Federal Automated Vehicle Policy Statement and the Trump Administration's Automated Driving Systems 2.0: A Vision for Safety.Keep up with us on LinkedIn: The Mobility Podcast Greg Rogers Greg Rodriguez Pete Gould Samantha Roxas Or find us on Twitter: The Mobility Podcast @MobilityPodcast Greg Rogers @MoveGreg Pete Gould @Pete_Gould Greg Rodriguez @SmarterTranspo Samantha Roxas @SamanthaRoxas
