Public Transit Geography

Public transit geography focuses on how public transportation systems, like buses and trains, are organized and relate to urban spaces. It examines how these systems connect different neighborhoods, influence land use, and shape social interactions. By studying routes, stops, and accessibility, transit geography reveals patterns in how people travel, where they live, and how efficiently they can move within a city. This field helps urban planners design better transportation options, improve access to services, and promote sustainable urban growth, ultimately impacting the quality of life for residents.
