From SPUR:
8:52 PM PST on January 2, 2015
From SPUR:
A novel approach to public transit planning has considerably improved the operation of Zurich, Switzerland’s two-level public transportation system by matching services to specific markets. Learn how this approach could improve existing systems and help plan attractive and cost-effective new service across the Bay Area. Join us after the talk for a hands-on workshop where we’ll apply and test these methods on local transit projects. Co-presented by Young Professionals in Transportation.
