Our students (with @mitmobility @MITdusp) have been presenting recent findings and learning about cutting-edge public transport research in Spain.
Thanks to @MISTIatMIT @La_UPM Global Seed Fund for supporting this opportunity for cross-cultural learning and exchange.
▶️@mitmagob se ha reunido con el Instituto de Tecnología de Massachusetts (MIT), el Consorcio Regional de Transportes de Madrid y la @La_UPM para intercambiar experiencias de la aplicación de inteligencia artificial y tecnologías bigdata al análisis de la movilidad.

In his thesis, #dusp alum Rubén Morgan (MCP '21) uses @MBTA #data to explore how outreach, pricing, & employer-based strategies could restore & attract new ridership for #publictransit #mobility in a post #Covid_19 era. More via @mitlibraries Dspace- bit.ly/morganDspace

My first byline! Op-ed for @EnoTrans: Preparing transit for the Future of Work.
“Remote work” has become synonymous with “working from home” [...], but there are plenty of compelling alternatives, each with their own implications for transportation.

Excited to share our ongoing research on remote work locations, with Xiaotong Guo and Jinhua Zhao at @MITTransitLab @mitmobility. We find that about a third of all remote work happens away from home, which has significant implications for urban mobility.

Presenting 3 posters at #TRBAM this year - please stop by and say hi! Research on public transit performance measurement, equity and ride-hailing matching algorithms.
I’ll be in Poster Hall A until 5:30PM today (ride-hailing), and from 8:00-9:30AM tomorrow (public transit).

Title VI should be the bare minimum. President Carter lays out a compelling case that agencies must do more and engage with questions of equity and access in a more nuanced way.

Title VI creates an opportunity for transit agencies to feel absolved from achieving actual equity in their systems at the expense of their riders. Instead, states Dorval Carter, transit professionals should couple Title VI with actual policies & outreach. #TRBAM
