Transportation Equity in a New Era


Transportation Equity in a New Era
On September 30th, 2020, Meeting of the Minds convened a free, live webinar featuring Chris Kidd of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, Jamario Jackson of TransForm, and Rachel Zack of Remix.
Program
The project will be complete in October and could not come at a more critical time. Transit agencies across the country are facing tough choices, having to make service decisions that will affect their residents mobility and access to opportunities in the short and long-term. They will need more dynamic tools to analyze and engage with their communities.
Presenters from the SFMTA, Transform and Remix will share insights from their pre and post COVID equity work, the critical gaps in tooling that exist in the planning space, and possible responses. In this webinar you will hear perspectives from three sectors on equity planning in transportation, findings from on-the-ground projects working to deliver more equitable investments and transportation outcomes, and possible scenarios for the road ahead.
