INVESTING IN AN ACCESSIBLE NEW YORK:
 A Conference on Public Transportation and New York's Future

New York City is home to the country's most expansive public transportation network, with 14 million people, seven million workers and a $1.4 trillion economy relying on its buses, subways and commuter trains every day. Just as this transit network has shaped what the city has become over the past century, the investments we make today will determine New York City's global competitiveness, affordability and economic development for generations to come.

Join University Transportation Research Center and the Regional Plan Association on May 8th as the nation's transportation leaders convene to discuss how New York City's transit network has shaped the city we know today and the role that transit investments will play in New York's future.
