Public Transportation

At the Neighborhood Scale

Think. What opportunities does your neighborhood have for using public transportation? Are there ways you could take advantage of them more often?
Plan. Participate in a walkability audit with LiveWell. Talk with your neighbors about what works best for them when using public transportation, and see if there are ways the system could be improved. Consider the potential for a neighborhood car pooling program.
Act. Volunteer to be part of a block watch for safe routes to school and your neighborhood walking school bus with LiveWell. Encourage neighborhood youth to volunteer at Toledo Bikes! and build their own bike while learning how to maintain it in the future.
Maintain. Learn about bike maintenance at Toledo Bikes! or a neighborhood bike shop. Support LiveWell’s walking school bus program and advocate for more complete streets. Change the way you think about how you travel and be more conscious of public transportation options.
Go Beyond.

Create a neighborhood pledge to public transportation when appropriate.
Create a neighborhood walking, biking, running, etc. group to get to places without using any fossil fuels.
When traveling long distances, use a service like Wanderu to find public transportation options.
