FCC Construcción participates in Disrupting Mobility Summit

FCC Construcción has participated in the Disrupting Mobility Summit, organised by Kearney, which under the slogan "Innovating Sustainable Futures" has generated a hub of thought and reflection on innovation in mobility, as well as the possible ways towards a change towards more sustainable mobility and the promotion of more responsible and habitable cities.

Disrupting Mobility is a collaborative network of leading mobility and city research centres from around the world, including LSE Cities, MIT Media Lab, the Center for Sustainable Transportation Research at the University of Berkeley and Fraunhofer KEIM.  It brings together leading innovators from science, government, cities and industry to explore future scenarios for sustainable mobility. Disrupting Mobility aims to drive research, policy and strategies for the integrated transformation of transport, sustainable mobility and liveable cities.

In recent years, many of the mobility innovations foreseen in 2015 have matured. Electric mobility has gained significant fleet share, renewables now account for 30% of global energy generation, shared mobility and micro-mobility have gained more traction, and many cities around the world are implementing low-emission and car-reduction strategies to improve liveability and sustainability.

However, global innovation in mobility has not had the necessary impact on transport decarbonisation to meet global emissions targets and the global share of sustainable mobility services has not grown significantly. Demand for transport continues to grow and current decarbonisation and transformation levers do not provide sufficient gearing to effect genuine, systemic change in mobility provision. Cities and regions continue to suffer from high levels of congestion, spatial inequality, air pollution and unsustainable land use. The overall share of public and shared mobility has not displaced private motorisation and car use.
