APTA Podcast: Quest for Accessible Public Transportation–Reflections at the 35th Anniversary of the ADA

Accessible mobility for all is a core value of APTA and its members. The latest episode of The Transit Authority, APTA’s official podcast, celebrates accessible mobility and a commemoration of the 35^th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), signed into law July 26, 1995.

Ron Brooks, author of  All Aboard: Conducting Accessible Community Involvement for Public Transit, and Anna Zivarts, author of When Driving is not an Option: Steering Away from Car Dependency, offer insights into the history of transportation for persons with disabilities pre-ADA and share opportunities for transit agencies to bolster accessibility today and into the future.
