Decade by decade, block by block, our grand avenues were turned into deadly car conveyor belts. Our bustling public spaces were repurposed for vehicle storage. Our cities and lives can be so much more if we just think differently about how we get around:

I knew Transit did biking directions – it's always an option below all the route suggestions – but I didn't know it had an overlay for safe routes. These directions are good. REALLY good. And available everywhere! Even Google doesn't factor protected lanes into its routing.

Millions of people are still using public transit. Who are they, exactly? We surveyed 25,000 riders. - They're essential workers (no surprise) - 56% identify as women — just 40% as men - Ridership is much less "white" than before the pandemic More stats:

Rats. They're everywhere. But mostly in New York. We asked Transit riders to tell us when they saw rat(s) at a subway station, ran the numbers, and found which @mta stations had the most tails on the rails. Behold, the great NYC Subway Rat Detector: 🐀

DART is the largest US agency that doesn't share real-time data with other apps. Riders in Dallas look at Transit 100K times per month and see stale, scheduled times instead of real-time information. 🤔 Why? Good question... Let's open that data @dartmedia . Frito pie's on us!

IDK why I didn't try the Transit app sooner. It's so slick. I like to imagine if we could get DART's Chief Innovation Officer to try the Transit app for just one bus trip, they'd immediately open up real-time data & fare API so everything can be done thru Transit app.

Most cities don't have open mobility APIs. 😩🛴🚫 But when cities DO have them—the market is MUCH more vibrant. Case in point? Washington, DC. We found when riders aren't locked into one operator app, it's 2x as easy to find a scooter 🏛📈👉

In November, we made a public call for Open Mobility APIs. They’re the only way to guarantee that new ~floating~ transport modes (i.e. 🚖🛴⚡🚲) can fulfill their traffic-killing, city-saving potential. Now: 14 major cities are throwing down their very own API gauntlet. 👊🚍⚖️
