Though this Transit Audit Tool Kit contains sections describing four (4) different activities, there is no requirement or recommendation to complete all activities to have a successful transit audit. Furthermore, the activities are presented in a recommended chronological order, however you may choose to complete them in a different order, depending on your specific needs. The goal of this tool kit is to provide you with a myriad of options for how to approach your transit audit. You may conduct as many or as few activities as you like, on a timeline that is most amenable to your community’s specific needs.
