525am: Well, that escalated quickly. Storms erupting across much of SE CA & far SW AZ. Flash Flood Warnings west of El Centro where over 2" of rain has fallen in just over the past hour. Another cluster of storms heading towards Yuma the next 1-2 hours. #cawx #azwx

In Philadelphia, SEPTA now offers college students a dirt-cheap "all-you-can-ride" transit pass --but only if their school buys one for ALL students. Swarthmore is the first to sign on.

It's a model more colleges (& transit agencies) should consider. 🧵⬇️

New research! We developed multiple approaches to infer mobility of care and women's travel on transit using fare card data: “Can Mobility of Care Be Identified from Transit Fare Card Data? A Case Study in Washington D.C.” https://t.co/DZROcdEKh6.

Painful headways. Even after cutting schedules for July, @MBTA still claims this bus comes every 15 minutes or less.

[Anson Stewart @ansoncfit]

@Rio In general, earlier than planned.

In Boston given recent slowdowns and missing buses, later than planned. But so much later, it's approaching earlier. Benefits of unreliability?

@MBTA Operator 531007 deserves commendation for inching around an illegally parked truck in Harvard Sq this morning!

[MBTA @MBTA]

Shuttle buses replace Red Line service between Harvard and Park St due to Fire Department activity at Kendall/MIT. Please expect delays as shuttles are dispatched.

[Anson Stewart @ansoncfit]

With the #MBTA slow zones on the Red Line, maybe I'll take the #1 bus, which is supposed to come every 10 minutes.

*checks real-time arrivals*

😭

[Anson Stewart @ansoncfit]

Why have a bus every 10 minutes when you can have 3 buses every 35 minutes? 🙃

"Some of our discomfort arises from not wanting to, or knowing how to, process seeing that our society is persistently failing people. Transit is the site of this discomfort because it is one of the remaining truly shared public spaces in our society."

[Anson Stewart @ansoncfit]

This.

"My biggest risk as a transit rider comes from crossing the street to get to the bus stop, not other riders. Transportation advocates need our narratives to match the real risks so we can get the policy attention on the right things."

[Anson Stewart @ansoncfit]

"A lot of the transit safety conversation is actually about the discomfort and fear that comes from being in proximity to people whose actions we cannot control or always predict. To ride public transit is to come face to face with a wide cross section of society."

Made a few maps illustrating the impact of transit frequency on non-work access to destinations in the Sacramento area.
