Transit Safety Survey Preliminary Findings
In November 2024, AC Transit conducted the Transit Safety Survey to meet the requirements of Senate Bill 434 (SB 434), authored by Senator David Min (D-Irvine). The survey, based on the Mineta Transportation Institute’s Street Harassment Survey, was available to riders from November 7 to December 1, 2024.
To ensure broad representation and to include the voice of communities who are less likely to engage in an online survey, we also conducted intercept surveys at bus stops and onboard buses. The survey was administered systemwide and offered in English, Spanish, and Chinese and was promoted on the AC Transit website, social media channels and via onboard advertisements and flyers.
