East Boston Mobility Hubs

East Boston Mobility Hubs, a 2019 Community Grants winner, was seeking to address East Boston’s unique mobility challenges by designing a prototype mobility hub: a place that connects different modes of transportation with accessible and user-friendly infrastructure and improves the transit experience, adding vibrancy, safety, and legibility to the public realm.

In January 2023, TransitMatters will release the Mobility Hubs Toolkit. This toolkit is targeted for community organizations and members, rather than planners and technical experts. It provides a description of each element of a mobility hub, as well as its benefits and any considerations, such as cost and equity. The toolkit intends to empower communities to implement relatively low-cost solutions that can be scaled to fit an individual community’s needs.

The toolkit will be available at transitmatters.org/mobility-hubs.
