The Role of Public Transit in Carrying Essential Workers: Roads, Rails & Rides
Since the launch of this Roads, Rails & Rides this year, so much of the tone in the transportation industry has shifted. All of the positive forecasts have shifted to a strategy of analyzing how many resources an organization has in the reserves to help weather the storm.
The micro-transit options such as Bird and Lime that took streets by storm the past two years have had temporary bans placed on them to help reduce the spread of germs. All ride sharing has come close to a grinding halt as stay-in-shelter orders have swept the nation. But public transportation in cities have not been stopped because it is a crucial element of helping essential employees make it to work.
Host Jeb Morris and The Voice of B2B, Daniel Litwin, discuss how quickly the transportation landscape has changed and is still changing every day.
