Like many transit agencies across the country, TriMet, the transit district serving the Portland, OR, metro region, has seen a recent loss in ridership, principally on its bus system.

From the “Office of Extraordinary Innovation” at LA Metro comes the announcement the agency would be throwing its hat in the “microtransit” ring.

Many bus stops around the country are much closer together than they should be, slowing down the ride for everyone. 

Perhaps what didn’t make Hurricane Harvey headlines is how the local transit agency Houston Metro’s commitment to emergency preparedness paid off – before, during and after the storm.

What's an essential but often missing component of high ridership transit networks? It isn't new branding on buses or the latest light rail car.

Trying to understand why transit ridership is going up or down is a worthwhile pursuit, but one that is best undertaken locally.

It’s a season for change in the top position at many U.S. transit agencies.

At the Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) hearing today, the de Blasio Administration will propose a rule to make New York City’s taxi industry -- and its traditional car service counterparts -- better serve the public.
