World Bank in the last 15 years… Financed 70+ urban transport projects, in the amount of $12 billion – Mass transit systems (metro, BRT, tram) – System Integration – Non-motorized transport – Traffic management – Leveraged additional investments of about $8- 10 billion (government co- financing, climate financing, private sector)

What technology?
4
General Transit Feed Specification – GTFS Open data standard for digitizing public transport routes – Routes, stops (GIS coordinates), operating schedules, fares – Can be used in any database application or program (.txt file)
5
OpenStreetMap Wikipedia of map – free and editable Crowd sourcing from data collected by registered users, using manual survey, GPS devices, aerial photography, etc. Let’s try!
6
OK… so what? We actually used these tools to assess how well public transport networks works! Without a penny paid for expensive transport modeling software

Are the routes duplicated?

You are right, this is not enough… We need the demand side data to get the full picture

Where people live and work (study, shop, play)?
15
Which neighborhoods are not served by PT?

18
Before After Can we improve by re-arranging some routes?
