This year marks Mass Transit's third time conducting the annual Mobility Outlook survey and, while threats from COVID-19 remain, there appears to be more hope attached to the upcoming year. In last year's report, about 45 percent of transit respondents expected slightly or significantly lower operating and capital budgets. In 2022's report, the weight of answers falls in a more positive direction with nearly 75 percent of transit respondents reporting budgets that will be slightly higher or significantly higher.More than 56 percent of respondents from transit supporting entities, such as manufacturers, suppliers and consultants, report their company budgets have not increased for 2022, but they also report they do not anticipate the deep cost cutting measures from 2021 to repeat this year. |
