Hubhacks
ideas
Thubway
Create a tool that will provide route options that combine the use of MBTA and Hubway. The Hubway option would appear for trips whose origin or destination are more than 12 minutes from a transit stop. Hubway route choices would extend for all sets of connections that are within the 1/2 hour Hubway window.
Bogged Down Busses
Create a tool for Mayor Walsh's control panel that would graphically indicate portions of city bus routes that are bogged down in traffic. Data could be viewed for a time period or cumulatively and would be helpful for planners considering bus-only lanes or traffic signals timed to bus location.
