Urban Mobility

Tnc's, Taxis, Pedestrians, Parking

Providing accessible and safe transportation options can enhance the overall experience of the visitor, accommodate employees who work night shifts, reduce impaired driving and expedite the process of clearing the district at closing time. While Transportation Network Companies (TNC's) and e-hail services such as Uber, Lyft and CURB are filling a much needed service in the nighttime economy, they can also generate traffic congestion and increased risk to pedestrians. This webinar features a case study of Pittsburgh's comprehensive plan to establish a "transport hub" and how TNC's can work with police to reduce traffic congestion and improve pedestrian safety.
