Research to Practice Transit Symposium

In October 2022, T-SCORE sponsored the symposium where the theme was “translating transit research into practice”. This program offered a platform for transit experts to share insights on how evidence-based research can be used to leverage large-scale investments in transit and rail. Some of the topics discussed also included zero-fare transit, fare collection, multimodal coordination, transit resiliency, zero emissions, strategic funding, cost management, and intersections with public health.

Sustainable Travel Workshop

In August 2022, T-SCORE hosted a Sustainable Travel workshop for the residents of the City of Peachtree Corners, GA at Curiosity Lab, in collaboration with the city. Discussions in this workshop consisted of sustainable travel modes and feedback from residents about problems related to sustainability in the city.

HBCU-Georgia Tech Transport Research Forum

In May 2022, researchers with a desire to influence the transportation field from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the South gathered at the Georgia Institute of Technology for the first ever HBCU-Georgia Tech Transport Researcher Forum. The Forum offered a space to discuss opportunities for collaborative research, and had a total attendance of 30 researchers from 13 colleges and universities. Organized by faculty Michael Hunter and Kari Watkins from Tech’s School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, this event sought to bring together diverse faculty with similar research interests to share about their successes, and explore planning future multi-disciplinary and multi-university projects together.

Visit from Don MacKenzie

Dr. Don MacKenzie of the University of Washington visited Georgia Tech to speak about the interaction between transit and ride-hailing. Ride-hailing services may serve as a substitute or a complement—or some combination thereof—to transit. Dr. MacKenzie shared a study of how US commuters’ stated willingness to ride transit is influenced by the price of ride-hailing services and whether the service is provided by an autonomous vehicle.
