Humans of Transit: transit doesn't equal crime

Bronwen and Bee introduce a new segment called Humans of Transit which is part of a larger project of the same name funded by Ontario Community Changemakers.

Humans of Transit aims to destigmatize the transit experience. We wish to enhance the visibility of transit riders and improve people’s sense of ownership of public transportation in Windsor.

In this episode, we tackle the myth that transit brings crime. Bronwen shares their correspondence with Tyson Craigg, executive director of Transit Windsor, about violence in the transit system.

Bee talks about the recent vandalism towards the buses on our roads and the myth that a new bus route will increase crime in your neighborhood.
