Leading Change: The Power of Public Transportation
APTA’s fundamental charge is to make the compelling case that public transportation means jobs and a strong economy, equitable and affordable access to community resources and opportunities, and a healthier environment and cleaner air for all residents, whether they use transit or not.
APTA will proactively support members in anticipating, shaping and harnessing change, and work with technology companies, practitioners and decision makers to enhance public transportation’s ability to connect and strengthen communities equitably and efficiently.
APTA will provide the tools and knowledge to fill skill gaps, invest in tomorrow’s workforce competencies and position public transportation as an attractive, dynamic and innovative career path.
APTA will be an essential resource for members as they respond to safety, security, social and environmental challenges and rebuild ridership.
