Transit Accsesibility Mobility: Over 2.5 million trips are made on New York City’s buses every day. Slow bus service means long commutes, and encourages private vehicle use. Equity: Bus trips are disproportionately made by lower income populations, and provide the only access to areas with more limited availability of jobs and services.
