Transit Access Stories: The State of Transportation Equity in Seven Cities

To create transit systems that work for everyone, transit agencies, and advocates must first understand how well people of varying identities can or can’t access what they need to thrive. These Transit Access Stories combine transportation access to opportunity data, quotes from riders, and other data sources to demonstrate how decisions from transportation leaders on service planning, policy, and funding impact how people can access their daily needs in seven US cities. Advocates can use this information to demand change from transportation decision-makers, and transit decision-makers can apply our data to implement solutions within their systems.
