Sign-on to tell City Council: Transit M♡VES US!

Public transit is essential for all of Pittsburgh's neighborhoods and its residents. 

Add your name as we release our new report, "Representing Our Routes: The State of Public Transit and How the City Can Improve It", to show your support for public transit. We'll be meeting with each city councilperson to share this report and all the support from constituents like you.

Left side of the graphic has text that reads "Representing Our Routes: A press conference and report release on the state of transit in Pittsburgh and how the City can improve it."

Our new report will look at the State of Public Transit for City of Pittsburgh residents and outline how City Council can improve it.

On Wednesday, February 8th at 1 pm, join Pittsburghers for Public Transit (PPT) for a press conference to release our new report, “Representing Our Routes: The State of Public Transit and What the City of Pittsburgh Can Do to Improve It.” Representing our Routes will provide an in-depth view of what transit looks like for constituents in each of Pittsburgh’s different City Council Districts using data and will highlight personal stories from riders. The report will also identify ways in which City Councilmembers can support high quality, reliable transit in their districts, and can enact policies laid out in the Pittsburgh 100 Day Transit Platform, now adopted into Mayor Gainey’s Transition Plan.
