DURHAM, N.C., December 16, 2021 – Throughout the pandemic, optimizing public engagement techniques has become a top priority for transit providers to reach riders and communicate change as it occurs. As a leader in innovative transit technology and part of Ford’s mobility portfolio*, TransLoc explores new and traditional engagement methods in a 60-minute roundtable discussion: Innovative Engagement Tactics.

The webinar features PublicInput’s Content Marketing Manager Tricia Thomas, MPA, TransLoc’s Manager of Marketing Mor Aframian, and Customer Marketing Specialist Erin Thompson. Key findings from TransLoc’s 2021 Transit Value Index help shape the conversation as the panelists share insights surrounding flexible outreach strategies, aligning with communities, and measuring engagement success. 

On the impact of COVID-19, Thomas shares, “Social distancing was a game changer when it came to public engagement, and 2020 became synonymous with agility and resilience in the face of unimagined change… Success means providing multiple ways for people to contribute that ultimately result in representative feedback, consensus, and informed decision making. If we can do all of those things, then I feel like we’ve hit a home run.”
