SUMMARY
FDOT Staff will provide a presentation on Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and Congestion Management Multimodal Planning (C3MP).
Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is defined by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as “an air transportation system that moves people and cargo between places previously not served or underserved by aviation - local, regional, intraregional, urban - using revolutionary new aircraft that are only just now becoming possible.” While AAM supports the transportation of people and goods between many geographic areas, Urban Air Mobility (UAM) focuses specifically on urban and suburban environments. UAM is envisioned as a “safe and efficient aviation transportation system that will use highly automated aircraft that will operate and transport passengers or cargo at lower altitudes within urban and suburban areas.”
C3MP represents a new way of incorporating modal considerations into existing FDOT and M/TPO processes. With an initial focus on public transit, and a recent expansion into other modes including aviation and freight, C3MP aims to implement a proactive, coordinated, collaborative, and innovative approach to providing safe and reliable mobility choices that reduce congestion in our communities.
This presentation will highlight the Initiative’s vision and mission, goals, and processes, with a special emphasis on linking planning documents of M/TPOs
