Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) are often discussed as a technological breakthrough but their real significance lies in how they could reshape our cities, transport systems, economies and everyday lives.

From safety and congestion to planning, data governance, infrastructure, public transport, equity and jobs - the impact of CAVs goes far beyond the vehicle itself.

This panel brings together expert voices from policy, industry and research to explore:

• What impact could CAVs realistically have in the next 5–15 years?

• What are the risks if we get it wrong?

• How do we create a truly inclusive CAV ecosystem?

• And what should local and regional authorities be preparing for now?

Join us for a candid, cross-sector discussion on what CAVs could mean for mobility systems, inclusive transport and whether we are planning for transformation or reacting to disruption.

Speakers include:

Sandra Witzel, Founder ,Women in Mobility UK
Karla Jakeman,Head of Safety Business Development, TRL
Rebecca Posner, Director of Inclusive Research, Research Institute for Disabled Consumers (RiDC)
