📢 News: In collaboration with @CADeptTech & @logindotgov, we've launched Cal-ITP Benefits, the 1st online tool for transit riders to verify their identity & benefit eligibility + link fare discounts to debit & credit cards: https://t.co/cmAUW0Gbkq
Board member @LillyShoup facilitated a panel on how new mobility & innovative partnerships can play a role in creating a multi-modal network. A great conversation that highlights the role of organizations like ours in helping cities innovate and better serve their citizens.
Older adults (65+) can now get their senior discount when they #TapToRide on MST!🥳Thanks to a new website called Cal-ITP Benefits, older adults can link a senior discount to a contactless debit/credit card & receive a discounted fare every time they tap: https://t.co/bRaap7PTjh

Using the State Highway Induced Frequency of Travel (SHIFT) Calculator from @RockyMtnInst, @NRDC & @T4America, anyone can now project the increases in driving that would result from highway expansions. We hope practitioners use it and help make it better.

I loved this session! Thanks @AdieTomer for hosting a great conversation today on the important role the Partnership played and lessons for the current Administration!
.@BethOsborneT4A says there were some missed opportunities with the Partnership for #SustainableCommunities, but adds, "We did allocate money to really important projects and planning efforts across the country that continue to bear fruit today." https://t.co/lKlbasLJ0I
1/ Let's talk about the House Republican surface transportation bill (STARTER Act 2.0) and why highways are often a lousy tool for economic development - especially in rural areas facing hardship.
Congrats to @MST_TransitNews on being the 1st transit agency in CA to accept contactless credit/debit/prepaid card & digital wallet payments for fares! This is the 1st demonstration of @california_itp, an initiative to simplify transit throughout CA.

Removing barriers to #transit ridership underscores what Cal-ITP is all about, and the launch of this #contactless#payment demonstration represents a significant step toward a simpler and more #equitable#publictransit system throughout California. @CAforAll
