SAMPAN – Everett becomes first local city to speed bus commute with raised platforms
SAMPAN: “Everett becomes first local city to speed bus commute with raised platforms”
“Fixing the ‘last mile’ is often cited as an important goal for transportation agencies and advocates to improve how people get from their transit stop to final destination. Adding boarding-level platforms in Everett shows a commitment to the ‘last six inches,’ too,” said Wendy Landman, Executive Director of WalkBoston. “These last six inches are critical elements of age and disability-friendly communities, growing bus ridership, and improving mobility for all community members.”
