In June 2023, eleven Bay Area transit leaders, including public agency staff, advocates, and elected officials, participated in a study delegation visit focused on public transit in Switzerland, which has one of the world's highest ridership transit systems - seamlessly integrated at the national, regional, and local levels.

The group experienced Swiss system first-hand, and through meetings with leaders at different levels of government, learned directly about how the country created such an effective and integrated network even in a complex environment with many transit agencies.  

At this webinar, Seamless Bay Area's Adina Levin will moderate a panel discussion with several of the study delegation participants about what were the key insights from the from the experience, and potential lessons for the San Francisco Bay Area.
