Are you curious about who rides public transit, when they ride it, and what factors contribute to increasing ridership? TRB hosted a webinar on Tuesday, August 18, 2020, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM Eastern that explored public transit ridership trends. The presenters discussed bus and rail services in urban and suburban areas, focusing on what has changed in the past several years.
