First Quarter Ridership Report Released
Americans took 2.4 billion trips on public transportation in the first quarter of 2018, according to a new APTA report. Commuter rail ridership rose during that period, with many commuter rail systems showing increases.
Compared to the first quarter in 2017, the report shows an overall 3.9 percent decrease in public transit ridership. The report is available here.
“It’s well understood today that the landscape of surface transportation is in a state of transformational change and flux,” said APTA President and CEO Paul P. Skoutelas. “This new mobility paradigm requires public transit to be inventive, innovative and bold in forging partnerships with new providers, adopting cutting-edge technologies and meeting customers’ evolving desire for more flexible, customized service.”
