On 25-27 October 2023, EMTA delegates gathered in Barcelona for their 50th general meeting hosted by ATM – the public transport authority for the Barcelona area. In a CEO-level panel debate, members explored various solutions for the funding of public transport in the years to come. Members elected a new board and president for the association: meet the new EMTA board.
Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the association, ATM and EMTA organised a conference in which political leaders, guest from the European Commission, POLIS and UITP discussed the role of public transport authorities in shaping liveable and prosperous urban regions.
The conference ended with the launch of the Barcelona Declaration, calling for a greater recognition of the active and central role played by public transport authorities in delivering a broad range of policy goals.
