SUMMARY:SCDN Policy Connection: Moving the Region - Exploring an Equitable Transit Future
DESCRIPTION:Join Sustainable Pittsburgh for a dynamic webinar focused on the future of public transportation in Pittsburgh\, Allegheny County\, and the broader 10-county southwestern Pennsylvania region. As our region faces the threat of significant transit cuts\, the need for a fully funded and equitable transit system has never been more urgent. This session will dive into the challenges at hand\, including the impact on our communities\, and explore how we can avoid a future of reduced access and mobility. \n\n\n\nWe’ll also take a broader look at transit systems across the U.S. and around the world\, examining success stories we can learn from. From sustainable\, environmentally friendly solutions to economically thriving\, connected communities\, we’ll explore what a properly funded public transit system can look like and why it’s critical to our region’s long-term resilience and prosperity. \n\n\n\nExperts will discuss the latest updates on public transit in our region\, share strategies for advocating for its further investment\, and highlight best practices for building a thriving\, connected\, and equitable region. Register today to learn how we can shape a transit system that works for everyone—driving economic growth\, climate action\, and social equity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGuest Speakers \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJaspal Singh (he/him) \n\n\n\nSenior Director – Membership and Global Operations (MGO) \n\n\n\nUITP (International Association of Public Transport) \n\n\n\nCatherine Tulley (she/her) \n\n\n\nManager of Environmental Programs \n\n\n\nSouthwestern Pennsylvania Commission \n\n\n\nRyan Warsing (he/him) \n\n\n\nDirector of Sustainability \n\n\n\nPittsburgh Regional Transit \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nVIEW SPEAKER BIOS \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWho Should Attend \n\n\n\n\nMunicipal staff\n\n\n\nLocal elected officials\n\n\n\nSustainability professionals\n\n\n\nIndividual users of public transit\n\n\n\nOther stakeholders\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
