Transportation Barriers

Transportation barriers refer to obstacles that make it difficult for individuals to access reliable and affordable means of travel needed to reach essential places like work, healthcare, education, or community services. These barriers can include lack of public transit options, high costs, distance, or physical challenges such as disability. When transportation barriers exist, they can limit a person’s ability to participate fully in daily life, affecting their health, employment, and overall well-being. Addressing these barriers involves improving transportation infrastructure and services to ensure everyone can access necessary resources easily and equitably.
