On what transit agencies are solving for
“When you look around the world and think about public transportation, what communities are clamouring for is more public mobility equity and easier access to that public mobility infrastructure … providing easier access to [riders] and making it easier to choose to ride public transit, rather than jumping in your car by yourself and driving to work.”
On how agencies are using mobility platforms to drive equity
“[Working] with para-transit riders in Nigeria, to bring same-day para-transit options—that drives equity. Because today, para-transit riders have to reserve most of their trips 24 hours in advance, and that’s not really equitable for those of us who have to hop on a train or bus anytime we want to go somewhere.… Increasing equity and access with creative mobility platforms, that’s a common theme.”
On the late-night economy—and how transportation can drive it
“A lot of people work that third shift and can take the bus to work but end up driving instead, because when they get off work, the bus system may not be running. Agencies like e-hailing apps, the County, have been running a late-night program for almost a decade now, which is incredible. By working with e-hailing providers— is able to keep people out of their cars, on the bus, and [offer safer rides] at night at a affordable cost.”
