Public transportation in Maryland doesn’t reach the vast majority of jobs, according to a new study by the Central Maryland Transportation Alliance that analyzes census and other public data.
A typical resident of the Baltimore metropolitan area can reach just 8.5% of the region’s jobs in under an hour using public transportation, down from 9% in 2018 according to the study released this month that cites data published by the University of Minnesota in 2020. About a quarter of the region’s workers spend at least 45 minutes commuting to work while the average commute for transit riders is 57 minutes, according to census data.
