APTA's Transit Authority is proud to present a special 2023 year-end podcast with host Paul Comfort and our friends at Transit Unplugged, with guests Paul P. Skoutelas, President & CEO of APTA, and Petra Mollet, VP of Strategic International Programs. The lively conversation focused on the year that was and what we should be looking forward to in 2024.
The boost in infrastructure funding was, of course, the big news of the year, but it’s somewhat overshadowed by ongoing funding issues at many agencies across North America.
But it’s not all bad, because Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour introduced a whole new audience to transit this year. In city after city, the Eras Tour triggered massive transit use to get to the concerts.
Heading into 2024, everyone is optimistic that we’re finally shaking off the focus on ridership numbers and moving towards what is the service we’re offering, and are we serving everyone we should.
