The Taylor Swift Transit Effect
Manage episode 378240844 series 3405962
Shelley and Mary are back for another interesting episode on the the “Taylor Swift Transit Effect.” We discuss interesting stats and facts from this phenomenon, some criticisms to looking at this event as a decider on changes for transit, and finally the big question: will these concert goers continue to take transit? What does it mean for women, non-binary folks, LGBTQIA+ folks when they take transit? How do we address the needs and wants of those people around transit and planning?
We discuss lots of really great topics in this episode and can’t wait for you to listen!
