    This report was created by students at the University of Minnesota as part of a year-long partnership between SouthWest Transit and the University of Minnesota’s Resilient Communities Project (http://www.rcp.umn.edu). The goal of the project was to examine the history and effectiveness of transit governance in the Twin Cities (Minnesota) metropolitan area. SouthWest Transit project lead Matt Fyten collaborated with six teams of students in Dr. Hui Kong and Dr. Frank Douma's course PA 5232/CEGEE 5212: Transportation Policy, Planning, and Deployment, in fall 2021 to analyze the effectiveness of transit governance and policy since Suburban Transit legislation was introduced in the early 1980s. A final student report is available.
