摘要：	The North American transit industry has not been immune to global supply chain issues. Material shortages have delayed rail projects and the delivery of various transit vehicles. Issues have even impacted the supply of plastic cards used for fare collection. In October, Bay Area Rapid Transit and Metropolitan Transportation Commission urged customers to use a mobile version of the region's Clipper card to pay for transit fares and temporarily reprogrammed some ticket vending machines to issue old-style paper tickets. One segment to be impacted particularly hard by these issues has been the rural, small city, paratransit and nonemergency medical transportation providers. These mobility providers have experienced cancellations of small bus contracts, price increases between 30 and 70 percent and growing wait times to receive delivery of these vehicles.
