Transportation Justice Discussion & Meeting

Discussion of the latest from Metro, including updates related to public safety and a continuing driver shortage. We'll also do some brain storming on how to measure and communicate the impacts of bus service cuts.


On the docket for this month:

  • Some important updates from Metro on public safety and the ongoing operator shortage.

  • Brainstorming on how to best measure and communicate the impacts of bus service.
