About:

The AEG DMV "Ride for the Region" Task Force has launched the Ride for the Region transit challenge to spark increased use of public transit through gamification and friendly rivalry – riding the wave of college sports competitions (you know the one!) as we head into Earth month.

Task Force Volunteers have designed the Ride for the Region challenge, with help from Daniel Sheehan and the IncenTrip platform/team, and insight from Dennis Morgan and his Harlem CoLab at Columbia University.

• Registration period: Registration begins February 19, 2024

• Competition: The competition kicks off March 17, 2024
  
  By incentivizing new riders and encouraging riders to come back to transit, this challenge will not only boost the utilization of public transit services during the competition but will promote mode shift to sustainable transportation that will support a cleaner and healthier region. This mode shift is particularly important since the transportation sector accounts for nearly 40% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the DMV (D.C., Maryland and Virginia).
  
  Please visit the Ride for the Region website for more information on the challenge background and the logistics for being a challenge cohort member.

"Regarding Northeast/Regional Fleet Electrification, a critical obstacle to collectively overcome in the next 12 months is __________."

States in the Northeast have set aggressive goals to achieve net zero emissions and high levels of clean energy. With goals established, the challenge now is to determine the best pathways to achieving these goals. It will require a huge amount of new infrastructure deployment as well as retrofitting existing infrastructure which was designed for a different era.

In this event we will focus on the challenges in planning, designing, deploying and paying for upgrades to the region’s transportation system.

In partnership with the Advanced Energy Group, NECEC will convene leaders from the public and private sectors across the Northeast to share lessons learned, pain points and successes to build consensus on how we can collaborate to accelerate the attainment of the States’ goals.

An important aspect of the discussion will be how we incorporate municipal level strategy into the regional planning process, to ensure that this transition is equitable.

Objectives:

1. Educate regulators, utilities and other stakeholders to develop new markets for the greater good

2. Learn how innovative approaches using new business models or new technology have shown promising results

3. Develop a modernized transportation system that is affordable, just, equitable, and reliable
