In practice, this means seamlessly through? incorporating bus stops into people’s daily routines. Specifically, bus stops can be located near an array of food options, retail establishments, and services, allowing riders to cluster their errands around convenient hubs. They can be easily accessible on foot and via bikeshare or scooter, and close to parks, libraries, and other community destinations. They can include shelters, seating, and arrival information to make waiting riders comfortable. Surrounding street geometry can actively incorporate bus lanes and pedestrian safety, and network-wide considerations can keep the buses running efficiently. To fulfill the promise of buses as an equitable, sustainable, and efficient mode of transit, this type of ideal bus stop must become a reality for every person living in a city. Project for Public Spaces’ emerging Portals to Places program aims to do just that. The idea of bringing placemaking to transit stations is not new to us; Project for Public Spaces began encouraging transit agencies to think beyond the station in 2007.
