Metro wins national award for improving data on sidewalks
To gather better information to improve pedestrian safety and transit access, King County Metro joined our Access paratransit contractor, MV Transportation, to develop CommonPaths. CommonPaths was created by leveraging research conducted at the University of Washington’s Taskar Center for Accessible Computing Technology. The system provides powerful tools for agencies to collect and distribute high-fidelity pathway data in OpenSidewalks.
This new technology recently received the “Innovative Solutions Award” from METRO Magazine, an official voice of the national transit industry. The award honors transit agencies that have developed projects that save money, streamline operations, increase safety, improve customer satisfaction, or increase ridership.
