Trick Out My Trip: 10 Rider-Led Transit Projects to Rethink How We Ride

In this model, a civic vanguard—or neighborhood leader—brings forth ideas for improving transit, makes them palatable to city leadership, and demands a change. By raising money for transit improvement projects from their neighbors and demonstrating solutions that they would ultimately like to see replicated across the transit system, the Trick Out My Trip leaders have filled the role of civic vanguards. These ten resident-led projects are at once a proof of concept and, because they are citizen-funded, strong evidence of the community’s demand for action on the part of their transit agencies.

Ultimately, the effect of the tax benefit for commuter parking is to subsidize traffic congestion by parking roughly 820,000 more cars on America’s most congested roads in its most congested cities at the most congested times of day. It delivers the greatest benefits to those who need them least, typically upper-income Americans, and costs $7.3 billion in reduced tax revenue that must be made up through cuts in government programs, a higher deficit, or increases in taxes on other Americans.

…Could regional governance be at the root of problems faced by transit systems in other regions? Some regions have struggled to create universal farecards with updated technology. Other regions have targeted investment to new projects while neglecting the core network. Many regions struggle with coordinating service and interfaces between different operators or transit modes. If regions attempt to solve these problems without resolving their governance issues, they—like Chicago—may be fighting a losing battle.

Dear Friends,
It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.
Now more than ever, our advocacy is needed to keep stakeholders informed and connected, and to hold politicians to their promises to finally fix our nation’s ailing infrastructure.
We have already engaged nearly 280,000 users, and hoping to add many more as interest continues to grow.
We require your support in order to rise to this occasion, to make the most of this opportunity. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to InfrastructureUSA.org.
