Accessible paths to improving curbs

Accessible paths to improving curbs

My article on managing curb space  was published July 24, 2019 in the Coord.co newsletter.  Curb Space Management is key to managing traffic in congested areas and a tool to encourage intermodal transfers at suburban transit hubs between frequent limited-stop or express transit and microtransit & shuttles serving neighborhoods, industrial areas and office parks.  Curb space managers need to accommodate a variety of needs - including boarding and alighting accomodations for transit, ADA paratransit and for non-emergency medical transportation services.  The article is in the section below.
