Are Shelters in Place? Mapping the Distribution of Transit Amenities

We welcome Marcel Moran who is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of City and Regional Planning at UC Berkeley. The paper focuses on the distribution of amenities at bus stops in San Francisco. Transit stops serve as crucial components of journeys for riders, but their condition is often left out of equity considerations. Marcel conducted a census of transit stops in SF to explore the equity within and between neighbourhoods.

We’re talking about his paper Are Shelters in Place?: Mapping the Distribution of Transit Amenities via a Bus-Stop Census of San Francisco. This paper was recently published in the Journal of Public Transportation.
