| 摘要： | PUBLIC TRANSIT can help to connect a city in both the figurative and literal sense. Erol Ozan, a professor at East Carolina University, says, "You cannot understand a city without using its public transportation system." That's true of systems across the country and right here in the Columbus, Ohio Region. With a service area of 1.4 million residents, the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) had provided more than 10 million passenger trips in 2022. The Columbus Region is bracing for a population explosion, which is now expected to double to more than three million residents by 2050. In the short-term, our region is preparing to welcome Intel, which is making a $20 billion investment and creating about 7,000 construction jobs in Autumn 2023. This is why it's more critical than ever for COTA to take the necessary steps to ensure that transportation across the region will meet all of Central Ohio residents' needs and will not leave the region's most vulnerable residents in the rear view mirror. |
