ats14- transit and active transportation- sasha luftig
DESCRIPTION
This session will highlight how transit forms the backbone of a larger active transportation system and helps connect travelers to areas that are beyond their reach by bike or walking alone. Hear about this framework from various scales – short trips, regional commutes, statewide travel and beyond. Presentations will cover recent trends and analysis in CTUs (cycle-transit users), bikes-on-board, bike parking, locating bike share with transit stations and planning efforts underway, as well as real stories from current travelers who combine active transportation and transit.TRANSCRIPT
