The subcommittee considers equity issues associated with new, innovative, and emerging concepts, systems and technologies that facilitate mobility (e.g., traditional public and private transport, transportation network companies (TNCs), carsharing, microtransit, micromobility (bike and scooter sharing), ridesharing (carpooling and vanpooling), mobility on demand (MOD), and mobility as a service (MaaS)). The subcommittee covers equity challenges associated with these mobility services, and research, policies, best practices, and lessons learned for enhancing access for all. 

This committee addresses issues related to managing and executing transportation, mobility, and logistical efforts associated with the preparation for, response to, and recovery from human-made and natural emergencies and disasters. Specific topics include emergency evacuations, the supply chains associated with disaster response, longer-term business and community continuity, and humanitarian relief. Each topic is considered in terms of technical, operational, and human dimensions and policies using analytical methods, innovative techniques, and decision-making processes to plan for, respond to and recover from emergency events.
