The Port Authority of Allegheny County (PAT) and the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC) co-sponsored a transit visioning study for the year 2020 for the nine-county southwestern Pennsylvania region. Urban Design Associates is part of a team with DMJM/HARRIS and BRW that is analyzing current transit services in the region, projecting future growth, and exploring concepts for making transit an integral component of regional development. UDA conducted an extensive public participation process that included focus groups, interviews, and public meetings. UDA also held two public design charrettes – one in a rapidly developing suburb and one in a declining mill town – to illustrate how transit can be an essential component of Smart Growth and urban revitalization. Concepts explored during the process included fixed guideway locations for light rail and busways, bus rapid transit, park and ride facilities, joint development, enhanced transit stops, circulator buses, bicycle and trail connections, Maglev, and paratransit.
