[sustran] Expert Forum Traffic&Transport Information Systems 2009

[Alena Morrison]

Dear Dir or Madam

The International Institute for Information Design (IIID) in Vienna  
continues its highly successful Expert Forum Traffic & Transport  
Information Systems into the 4th year.  Unsurpassed in its field, this  
year's event - Scheduled & on-demand transport: Envisioning  
information driven alliances - will re-define 'integrated transport'  
and discuss traveller information as prominent key for a new era of  
mobility.  The addressed re-definition shifts the focus from  
"transport" to "mobility" which implies an analoguous focus-shift from  
a provider's to a traveller's point of view.

The Expert Forum is geared to discuss market potentials, to promote  
successful initiatives in user-centered mobility schemes and to  
exemplify the key role of information to make people abandon  
traditional travelling habits in exchange for sustainable alternatives  
with a higher degree of freedom at reasonable or even lower costs.

Your interest and expertise in transport might lead you to consider  
submitting a proposal in response to our Call for Speakers (first  
deadline 10 May 2009), details are available here.   You will find  
information on the event, our "Call for Speakers" and website link  
posted below, which you are free to pass on to like-minded  
colleagues.  Furthermore posting the information about the Expert  
Forum and our Call for Speakers would allow us to reach those who can  
make a valuable contribution.  Therefore, I would like to ask you to  
announce Traffic&Transport 2009, and our call for speakers in the most  
appropriate format available.

If you would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact  
the Assistant Coordinator at IIID, Alena Morrison, who will be happy  
to oblige.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Kind Regards,

Alena Morrison
