Trains, Buses, People: An Atlas of U.S. and Canadian Transit

Christof Spieler, PE, AICP, LEED AP, has examined more than 50 metropolitan areas in the United States and Canada with rail or bus rapid transit to explore why the systems were built, how well they are working and what makes transit successful.

Join the Maryland Department of Planning and the Smart Growth Network as Spieler shares his findings and outlines the evolving conversation about fare policies, wayfinding, transit governance structures, customer experience and the future of transit, and what he has learned from his work.
