I am very thrilled to arrange that our two professors make great research presentations to public in Suzhou. The venue is organized by the Suzhou highway association and the event is cohosted by CCDI.

This year, more than 100 people from industry, government and universities participated in this event and shared their knowledge and ideas to solve many traffic problems locally and internationally.

This is 2^nd Monash public speech organized following Graham’s speech last year. This event promotes our Monash Suzhou program’s reputation in China.

I as a director of the China program  thank again two professors, hosts and guests today for making this even successful.

In addition, Monash ITS is happy to appoint our research partners to Monash associates. Three members are as following from left.

I am also so pleased that students from school of urban rail transportation, Soochow University and our students get along with each other.

I also presented what my research team has done last 3 years including safety anaysis, illegal parking app, and shared bike programs.

My phd student, Mr Gu plays a very important role in this event as an interpreter.
