Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC)

The Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) supports projects that develop the next-generation of mobility and transportation technologies for Canadians. These advancements help grow the low-carbon and "smart" technology eco-system in the county, leading to job growth and economic development over the long-term. CUTRIC's work generates solutions that decrease fuel consumption, reduce emissions, eliminate redundancies, reduce congestion, improve the quality of life for Canadians, advance the digital integration of low-cost mobility solutions for urban, sub-urban, rural and remote communities across Canada, increase road safety and reduce road accidents. CUTRIC supports the technologies required for a 21st century low-carbon economy. CUTRIC strives to support the commercialization of technologies through industry-led collaborative research, development, demonstration/delivery, and integration (RDD&I) projects that bring innovation design to Canada's low-carbon smart mobility eco-system. Our vision is to make Canada a global leader in low-carbon smart mobility technologies across heavy-duty and light-duty platforms, including advanced transit, transportation, and integrated mobility applications.
