Pittsburghers for Public Transit is launching a new campaign to restore service and push for increased public inclusion in transit planning processes, and we'd like to hear your input.
For starters, we're asking for your help in assessing the need for mass transit in
the North Baldwin, Brentwood, and Carrick communities. PPT is well aware of the lack
of mass transit in these neighborhoods, and thus we are encouraging residents to take a few
minutes to fill out an online survey so we may better understand the
needs of this under-served area and communicate them to decision-makers.
The brief survey is available under the "Baldwin Survey" tab on our website. Please
encourage your neighbors to fill out the survey as well!

Bricolage's Fifth Wall series seeks to break down the barriers between scripted storytelling and current events in the world at large.
The 2014 Fifth Wall Series continues with a panel discussion on public transit in Allegheny County. Specifically, how (or if) public input should be included in planning for public transit. Panelists include:
Lucy Spruill - Committee for Accessible Transportation
Bonnie Young-Laing - Hill District Consensus Group
Ben Samson - Architectural Designer
Tom Conroy - Amalgamated Transit Union
Grant Ervin - City of Pittsburgh
Moderated by Chris Potter - Pittsburgh City Paper
Transit Tales, a collaboration between GoBurgh, Bricolage, and Pittsburghers for Public Transit is a multimedia program of community engagement, experience documentation, and creative storytelling that aims to raise public awareness and positive perception of public transit while attracting involvement from a diversity of audiences that may not engage in traditional conversations.
