| Topic & Speaker: | Scottish Rural & Islands Transport Community - Open Cafe & Chat: BYOC If you are working in the rural mobility space and concerned about the long-term prosperity of rural communities, & motivated to engage and support the work needed to create sustainable, accessible and integrated transport services, then why not come and join the Scottish Rural and Islands Transport Community's Open Cafe. This offers an opportunity to chat for an hour about whatever's on your mind from a rural and islands transport standpoint. No schedule, no speakers, just turn up, bring a slice of cake (BYOC) and chat. While we may be based in Scotland, the SRITC community is spread far and wide. From the west coast of the USA to Sydney Australia across many time zones. However, we all share a passion for making our rural communities even better places to live, work and visit through improving access to transport services. Bruno Van Zeebroeck from Transport and Mobility Leuven and the SMARTA project will be on hand to share details on two pilot projects taking place in France and Belgium which utilise digital technology to provide rural travellers with quick, safe and cheap transportation, and normalises hitchhiking as something locals of all ages can confidently engage in.The Open Cafes takes place at the same time on the last Friday of every month so if you have a free hour to spare at this time go ahead and register for them all. |
