A team of public transportation experts in Buffalo is creating a new light rail stop for the Buffalo Metro Rail system that will service a neighborhood in which a stop does not currently exist. To decide where to place the stop, the team is using a survey from ten years ago that asked how far neighborhood residents would be willing to walk to a light rail stop. The team also looked at studies showing that people’s willingness to walk to public transit is influenced by factors like weather and the presence of well-enforced low speed limits for cars. A researcher has argued that the survey does not accurately reflect the feelings of today’s residents of this neighborhood.
