Professionals in our industry, as well as the agencies we work with, are increasingly seeking ways to incorporate equity into transportation and infrastructure projects. Join us in this discussion between the WSP project team and our client, the City of Raleigh, about their work together to develop the Equitable Development Around Transit Study. Their collaborative effort led to a citywide guidebook with toolkit of strategies the City can deploy to leverage transit investments for equitable development and sustainable growth. Learn how the City was able to initiate the project and how it worked with WSP to realize this work that will help equitably realize the benefits of bus rapid transit in Raleigh.
