Always good to see the GRTC Pulse! Full bike rack this morning.

Glad to see more of these info signs in buses. Great work GRTC. Provides lots of useful info and much easier to read. Also applaud the use of "+" for "and". The main danger of these signs is the impulse to advertise.

Our team, led by Ricky Angueira, has been thrilled to work with VIA Metro Transit to develop a new system map that emphasizes frequency and usefulness to help people discover what's possible.

Congratulations 🎉 to Ricky Angueira for being honored as Mass Transit magazine Top 40 Under 40. Ricky's been leading major planning projects for us in Williamsburg, St. Pete, Knoxville. And he's now leading our Arlington office and customer info practice. masstransitmag.com/40-under-40/ar…

Fantastic graph from TransLink BC staff showing the virtuous cycle of frequency improvements leading to higher ridership. So many corridors in our cities have latent demand for transit limited by austerity budgets. Another great lesson from APTA SOPS Workshop.

Exciting to see Knoxville KAT launch their new network today with more frequent service and much better weekend service.

Come and work with a great team at Jarrett Walker + Associates! We're seeking one or more transit analysts/planners, at or near entry level, in Portland, OR or Arlington, VA. Details: jarrettwalker.com/were-hiring/ Please share.

Teaching our two day intensive course in public transit network design for ⁦VTA⁩ in San Jose today. VTA invited staff from member cities and adjacent agencies. A fun sandbox for learning how network planning works.

“The GRTC Pulse is a huge success story that doesn’t get told about our city very much, and I think people in Richmond often don’t believe that we deserve or are capable of good things. The Pulse is a huge sign that that’s just not true.” 🚌 Charlotte Matherly richmonder.org/pulse-bus-cont…

Lots of good thoughts in the route numbering review for the new Metro Forward bus network. Definitely agree that clockwise numbering seems simpler and clearer.

Great thread on the long-term success of the Metrorail system.

Excited to see the release of the MARTA NextGen Bus Network. Our team has led the concepts and policy conversation and were central to the network service planning. Looking forward to getting public feedback so we can make this network even better.

Excited the full details of the MARTA NextGen Bus Network launched this week. We're particularly proud of the Compare Your Access tool: …xtgenbusdraftnetwork.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html Next virtual meeting is Dec 17 at noon.

Never forget the true meaning of Christmas: we need to build more budget hotels.

Looking forward to connecting with colleagues across the industry this week, even with all the snow in the forecast. Let's catch up if you'll be at #TRBAM 2025.

When you build a rapid transit line but prohibit dense development around its stations, you’re mandating that the transit line’s benefits be wasted. Important new bill in California would confront this problem directly.
