To encourage multimodal alternatives to personal vehicles and increase transportation efficiency, Vancouver’s TransLink needed to prove the value of bus service and show that increased bus lanes would have a major impact for commuters.
To do so, the agency needed precise data showing the strength of bus ridership compared to personal vehicle use, especially on congested corridors.
See how this transportation agency used multimodal data from StreetLight to:
Gain political buy-in for investments in bus lanes and rapid bus lines
Reveal that bus usage was much higher than previously understood
