Why did AdkAction’s Executive Director take the bus to work today? To better understand an issue many community members have told us matters: transportation.

At AdkAction, we believe good solutions start with learning. That means asking questions, paying attention, and sometimes stepping into someone else’s daily routine. In today’s blog post, Sawyer shares what she learned from riding a local bus and why this kind of listening matters for our work across the Adirondacks: https://www.adkaction.org/transportation/commuting-by-bus-in-the-adirondacks/

We’d love to hear from you. How does transportation affect your life in the North Country?
