ModeShift

We built post WWII America around the car. What will it take to rebuild it around people instead?

If you don’t own a car in America, are you really free? We dig into why the lack of quality transit disproportionately penalizes the most vulnerable, and how cities today are building more equitable public mobility.

Transportation has seen more changes in the last 100 months than in the last 100 years. See how technology is contributing to the rapid growth of public transit, from urban city centers to sprawling rural communities.

Why rural transit is much more difficult to reinvent than urban transit.

Transit, from Capitol Hill to city hall.

How did we get to a point where our transit system is under so much pressure – at a time when investment is needed most?

What to expect over the next six episodes of ModeShift, a new show investigating the past, present, and future of how we move.
