Cities and states are acting to slow progress of the COVID-19 pandemic by shuttering all nonessential businesses, closing schools, and urging residents to hunker down at home. As a result, ridership has fallen off for many mass transit systems across the country — light rail, streetcar, buses and ferries — as officials work to keep service running.  +
Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is a planning and development approach that seeks to create compact, mixed-use, and pedestrian-friendly communities centered around high-quality public transportation. TOD is becoming an increasingly popular urban development strategy in many cities around the world as cities grapple with issues of urban sprawl, traffic congestion, and air pollution. The goals of TOD are to create more sustainable, livable, and vibrant communities that offer residents access to a range of amenities and services within a walkable, transit-oriented environment.  +
National transportation systems are a network of roads, highways, railways, airports, and waterways that enables the movement of people and goods throughout and between countries. They are complex system that includes various modes of transportation, such as air, rail, road, and water, and are essential to the functioning of the country's economy.  +
This project intends to develop and implement a plan to increase the supply of local food available to residents of the Pittsburgh food shed (200 mile radius) in several states. By using a data-driven strategic plan as a guide, it envisions a series of targeted interventions to increase the number of producers, add to the variety of the local food inventory, create and enhance aggregation entities to the distribution system, reduce choke-points in supply chains, expand the number of distribution opportunities, and organize consumer demand in ways that improve the equitability of the food system.  +
TriMet, formally known as the Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District of Oregon, is a public agency that operates mass transit in a region that spans most of the Portland metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Oregon.  +
Hop’s open architecture allows TriMet to capitalize on changing technologies or falling costs, avoiding expensive, cumbersome negotiations with a proprietary systems integrator that is set-up to profit from changes to the fare payment system over time.  +
