Measuring Accessibility to Public Transit in Pasadena, CA
Track: Public Transit
Authors: jonathan robinson

Who and what land uses are accessible within ¼ & ½ mile of Public Transit? Pasadena's Planning and Transportation Departments desired to go beyond a simple buffer analysis to create a more defined picture based on the current street network and Public Transit. Working together, Pasadena's City GIS spatially analyzed the level of accessibility to Public Transit in the City of Pasadena resulting in a model for identifying areas of need within the City.
