THE PODCAR CITYTM Conference is an initiative of the Institute for Sustainable Transportation (IST) presented by Connect Ithaca, to gather major stakeholders, affected by today's transportation issues at all levels. The aim is to have an open and creative debate on what Podcars (Personal and Group Rapid Transit) are, what the vendors claim to be possible, what communities are looking for and what critics and supporters have to say. The conference will hold several seminars and work programs. The main theme is how Podcars can contribute to sustainable cities and regions. This is the first North American conference, in cooperation with Advanced Transit Association (ATRA).
