A joint project of the Design Trust for Public Space and the New York City
Taxi & Limousine Commission, Taxi 07: Roads Forward asks, how can the taxi
best function as a vital part of New York’s public realm? And how can taxis
be optimally regulated to provide an excellent transportation service for all
passengers, as well as industry stakeholders and the city at large?
Taxi 07: Roads Forward accepts a fundamental premise: that New York’s taxi
services form a system—a network of interactions between people, vehicles,
and the city itself. The focus of this publication is on understanding those
interactions, and then considering what feasible, cost-effective, incremental
changes might improve taxi services over the next ten years.
