Transport networks are the pulse of every city, providing access, defining livability, and framing urban space. Decisions about whether to build highways, bus corridors, or greenways have a significant impact not only on the air we breathe and the cost of transportation, but also on the health of our planet. Through high-quality public transport, safe spaces for walking and cycling, and a focus on transit-oriented development, cities can provide more access to economic opportunities, community, and culture for everyone.
