Barriers to Transportation
-
Historically marginalized communities: The needs of those who are denied full participation in mainstream cultural, social, political, and economic activities can be overlooked in transportation planning.
-
Language barriers: Foreign language speakers can have difficulty reading and understanding resources vital to accessing transportation and social services.
-
Geographical barriers: Rural and urban residents may not always be near public transportation options and may not have the means to get to them.
