"Eventually, as the world returns to normal, whatever that new normal is going to be... people are going to want to return to public transit."
As COVID-19 affects public transit dramatically, we're proud to present a special edition of Transit Unplugged led by transit evangelist and Trapeze VP Paul Comfort. In today's episode, Paul shares headline news, including last week's uptake in ridership experienced by TriMet, in Portland, Oregon, as we experience a slow return to normal. We then hear from Kevin Desmond, CEO of TransLink, as he shares how they plan to recover from the COVID-19 crisis and their scalable capital budget plan for the next year. Mike Bismeyer joins us for Mike's Minute, where he reminds us that even during a crisis, we need to maintain our kindness with others. Plus, listen to a reading from the bestselling new book The Future of Public Transportation.
