King County Metro, the largest transit agency in the Seattle region, is guided by the principle that “mobility is a human right.” For Metro, that means reducing barriers to frequent, reliable transit that connects people to jobs and other opportunities.

Chris O’Claire is Mobility Division Director at King County Metro. In this episode, Chris details how the agency applies an equity lens to service planning and fare policy. Chris also tells us about Metro’s Equity Cabinet and how it has led to more inclusive decision-making at the agency.

“One of the most important things that we're hearing is that it's not just the individual that needs to travel to their job, but that families are dependent as a whole on public transportation.”
