"Free money for transit specifically was extremely helpful to people. People really appreciated it. They experienced all kinds of benefits, including being able to spend money on different things, make trips on modes [of transit] where they felt safer or modes that were more pleasant or more efficient routes."
"The results are encouraging for those who say free transit can lead to healthier, more connected, and more equitable communities. A lot can be achieved, researchers found, when more people use the bus or the train without having to worry about paying for it."
