The Value of Transit

Public transit provides significant value to urban areas by giving residents access to opportunities, services, and resources; increasing the productivity of the city; reducing harmful pollutants; and providing affordable transportation and economic mobility - especially to low-income residents. In the post-pandemic world of changed journey patterns, and with the increasing prevalence of private and for-hire electric vehicles, some may question the role transit plays in supporting urban and regional mobility, and in helping reduce harmful pollutants. This session looks at the impact of transit systems in Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco to reaffirm transit’s powerful role as a public good supporting efficient, affordable, and sustainable urban access.
