A newly released research report entitled “Developing Urban Mobility Policy in Response to Autonomous Vehicles” has been posted by the Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) via the Taubman Center for State and Local Government.

These are exhilarating face-to-face interactive sessions that immerse the participants into candid and quite fruitful dialogue about how to prudently and proactively cope with emerging AVs and self-driving efforts within their respective communities.
