The Changing Landscape of BRT
November 1, 2022 | 1:30pm – 3:00pm ET
New riders, new travel patterns, new metrics, and new sources of funding. The landscape for bus rapid transit (BRT) is changing, and transit systems across the country are adjusting BRT planning in response. Learn about embedding equity and economic development considerations in BRT planning. Learn how to prioritize BRT investments to serve the most people. Explore frameworks for making difficult choices, especially when performance measures don’t tell the whole story. Take home strategies to engage transit partners and the riding public.
SPEAKER
Better Engagement = Better Outcomes
November 1, 2022 | 3:30pm – 5:00pm ET
Recent times have seen welcome advances in outreach and engagement strategies, such as adopting more equitable approaches to engage the unengaged, involving community in decision-making and getting to implementation with better data and tools. Dive into examples and experience from a diversity of project and program settings. Hear about specific tactics, such as ridership ambassadors, collaborating with social justice providers, analyzing transit assets (e.g., bus stops) from the perspective of everyday users, and how community-based organizations can contribute to this work. Learn too how greater transparency through National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents can be part of a strong outreach and engagement process.
