💥 New report published!
In the US, more than 60% of the 400 urban #PublicTransit agencies suspended #fares at one moment or the other during the #COVID-19 pandemic. Starting from only 11 cases of full fare-free public transport before 2020, this is quite the transformation.
📘 How and why did this happen? Well, our team wrote a whole report on that!
