  • Leveraging Existing Transit Infrastructure for Equitable Vaccine Distribution Luna Hoopes Advanced Geospatial Methods Spring 2021 Client: Mile High Connects
    Leveraging Existing Transit Infrastructure for Equitable Vaccine Distribution Luna Hoopes Advanced Geospatial Methods Spring 2021 Client: Mile High Connects PAGE 1 BACKGROUND Mile High Connects is a Denver-based non-profit organization that aims to increase access to housing choices, good jobs, quality schools and essential services via public transit in the Denver Metro region. COVID Check Colorado launched in May 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and has provided COVID-19 testing. The organization is now working to ensure provision of COVID-19 vaccines to all Colorado residents. When the COVID-19 pandemic began, Mile High Connects engaged with COVID Check Colorado to identify areas of inequity around COVID-related services, primarily testing and vaccines. Because Mile High Connects prioritizes vulnerable populations who often rely on public transit, they are pursuing a partnership with the Regional Transportation District (RTD), in which RTD would provide the land and infrastructure for semi-permanent vaccine distribution sites in underserved areas. After review of existing RTD facilities and in conjunction with the client, it was determined that RTD Park-n-Ride locations are suited for semi-permanent vaccine distribution sites because of their established infrastructure such as protected areas, utility connections, and existing waste management services. The study area for this analysis is the RTD service area (see Figure 1). By responding to the following research question, this analysis is intended to help initiate a conversation between Mile High Connects and RTD to explore how RTD can provide resources in the vaccination effort. RESEARCH QUESTION Which RTD Park-n-Ride locations are eligible for installation of semi-permanent vaccine distribution sites? Eligibility is based on the lack of existing vaccine distribution sites in Park-n-Ride walksheds with a 20-minute walking time (1600 meters).
