Mobility Network presents ‘The Way Forward: Governing transit and integrated mobility’

Online via Zoom

Shared mobility and self-driving vehicles may reduce dependence on personal automobiles or they may worsen traffic and by competing with public […]

Willem Klumpenhouwer and Diego Silva present “Living on a fare: Dashboarding fare-sensitive access and equity in major U.S. urban areas”

While premium transit modes such as commuter rail can improve access to opportunities, the higher fares that accompany these services create barriers to their use. Fare-sensitive access measures require accurate estimation of fare costs between origins and destinations. They are not often included in public transit access analyses because of data limitations and computational complexity. […]
