Northern Virginia Transportation Commission's new report finds that more fully integrating bike networks, bike-share and scooter-share services into our regional transportation system can significantly increase access to jobs while boosting the efficiency of other regional transit services. In activity-dense corridors like Northern Virginia, these efforts are essential to enhance the vibrancy and vitality of our region.?? ? Investing in a robust, multimodal transportation network that enables access to opportunity has never been more central to our long-term vision for connected, more seamless movement throughout the Baltimore-to-Richmond corridor.?? ?

The future of urban mobility lies in integration. NVTC's latest report reveals that combining transit services with biking and scooter options not only extends the reach of public transportation but also enhances overall efficiency.

???????? New report by the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission! In this report, Sophie Spiliotopoulos and I explored how transit is integrated with bicycling and micromobility in the region. We evaluated this integration in five ways: 1. Bicycle parking at transit stops and stations 2. Bike rental (e.g., bikeshare and scooter share) at transit stops 3. Bikes on transit vehicles 4. Safe routes to transit 5. Customer communication and education We developed five recommendations that could help the region improve transit and micromobility integration, including: 1. Continued coordination with regional partners 2. Increased transit and bicycling integration in suburban areas, especially near commuter transit 3. Packaging more transit and bicycle improvements together 4. Increased clarity in infrastructure policies when transit and bicycling intersect 5. Increasing the collection and sharing of data focusing on transit-bicycling integration You can read the report here: https://lnkd.in/ezHSxHmq
