Hi Matt! I loved this poster because not having a car and having to use public transit instead is something that I deal with in College Park. I always wondered why public transit wasn't better and why more towns weren't designed to be walkable but your poster helped to clarify the main reasons. How can future research be conducted on a quantitative basis?

This project stood out to me because I support the push to expand public transit so I wanted to learn more about it. From reading your poster, I learned that the U.S, compared to the rest of the developed world, is very behind on transit oriented development and that a big reason for that is the cost that this would incur. Knowing this, do you also think it is still a good idea to promote public transit or do you think these impediments are the reason why expansion shouldn’t occur?

Hi Matt,
What drew me to your presentation was actually how you attached your citations. I had never seen a presentation that allowed you to scan your citations to take you to place with all of them available to you. I learned that compared to other nations, The United States has a very high transit costs and our light rate construction doubles the average. Do you know if there any bills be currently introduced to combat this problem?

I took a look at your poster because I live in a mainly suburban area where there are indeed competing visions for more transit oriented policies or policies that incentivize driving cars. I learned that the cost of building public transportation in the US is far higher that the international average. What solutions would you propose that would solve this issue?

Hi, Matt I was drawn to your poster due to the train underlying your poster and was interested in learning more about transit-oriented development and its impediments. I learned that there are 3 impediments to transit-oriented development in the U.S which are zoning policy, "not in my backyard" sentiments and Transit costs. Do you think the U.S will be able to overcome the impediments to transit-oriented development in the future?
