Webinar #19 - Rail Passengers Webinar Series: Defining the Needs of Transit Rail Passengers in 2022

The global pandemic has dramatically altered the daily commute of millions of Americans. That has created stark challenges for transit agencies and commuter railroads across the U.S., driving down ridership and ticket revenue and blowing holes in agency budgets. But it has also created opportunities, freeing up capacity on systems that had previously been straining to accommodate surging demand

Join us on Wednesday, September 28th at 2pm eastern as we talk with transit advocates, transit passengers, and transit representatives to hear about how agencies and railroads are responding to shifts in ridership, how they can better optimize service patterns to meet these new demands, and what Congress needs to do to assist agencies in this transition.
 

Panelists: 

• Art Guzzetti, Vice President of Public Policy - American Public Transit Association (confirmed)

• Alicia Trost, Chief Communications Officer - Bay Area Rapid Transit (confirmed)

• Hayden Clarkin, Founder & CEO - TransitCon (confirmed)

• MARTA Riders Advisory Council (invited)
