We invite Foucault on a bus ride to help us contest our thinking about the role of BRT in Quito.
Planning is understood as something ‘good’.
The outcomes of planning are not always what we would like it to be.
The outcomes are a consequence of powerful forces.
Understanding the role of power can give use some clues to start unpacking the existing forces.
Foucault understanding of power breaks away from common understandings of power as they do not capture all the complexities of modern uses of power.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

the following slides.
Click on the pencil icon on each page to submit questions
and comments. In two cases we ask for specific feedback.
2. What is COTA NextGen?
2
● Central Ohio's growth has been robust and thus,
expectations for public transportation are changing.
● COTA NextGen is a long-range planning effort to identify
public transportation needs and opportunities in the next
35 years.
● The plan aims to consider how growth trends will influence
public transportation and understand residents'
preferences and priorities for future transit services to
support and strengthen central Ohio.
3. NextGen Goals and Overview
● Create a community vision for the future of public transportation
in central Ohio – consider all ideas, not restricted by funding
● Prepare for future growth – 13% more people, 31% more jobs –
by identifying transit investments that integrate with regional
goals
● Support local and regional plans with transit investment options
(e.g. Connect ColumbUS and MORPC Metropolitan
Transportation Plan)
● Identify conventional and creative revenue options – outcome
will be the community’s plan with a list of projects and creative
funding options (spring, 2016)
3
5. How We’ll Use Your Input
● Values input will shape evaluation criteria – which will help us
compare and rank proposed projects
● “Where to invest” input will generate a target list of projects
– We’ll compare these with data analysis
● Later we will ask you to help prioritize projects

Values and Priorities
What should be transit’s role in Central Ohio?

Here are six transit “values”
that describe a role transit
might play in the future. We
would like to know which
three values are most
important to you.
Click on the pencil icon and
let us know. (Just tell us the
title and number, or let us
know if you have another
value.) Later we will use
these values to evaluate
and compare proposed
projects.

The following slides provide an overview of different types of public transportation
found in cities across the United States. The slides explain the types of land uses
we would expect to see related to the transit service that is provided. All ideas are
welcome, the following slides are only examples.
Future Transit Options
23. Transit Emphasis Corridors
Land Use Patterns
● Concentrated housing
and/or businesses
● Sidewalks
● Crosswalks
● Signalized intersections
● Crossable streets
● Off-street parking lots
and garages
Transit Investments
● Bus Rapid Transit
● Commuter Rail
● Frequent Bus
● Light Rail
● Streetcar
23
24. 24
This is an example of an area that has the density and
pedestrian activity that makes it a great candidate for a major
transit investment, such as light rail, bus rapid transit or
streetcar.
25. 25
This is an example of an area that has the density and
pedestrian activity that makes it a great candidate for a major
transit investment, such as light rail, bus rapid transit or
streetcar.
26. Transit Oriented Neighborhoods
Land Use Patterns
● Concentrated housing
● Sidewalks
● Signalized Crosswalks
● Signalized intersections
● Limited on-street parking
26
Transit Investments
● Bus Rapid Transit
● Commuter Rail
● Frequent Bus
● Light Rail
● Heavy Rail
● Streetcar
27. This is an example of an area that has the concentrated
housing, businesses and pedestrian activity that makes it a
great candidate for more transit service.
28. This is an example of an area with sidewalks and easy access
to buildings and residences, which makes it a great candidate
for more transit service.
29. Suburban Corridors and Developments
Land Use Patterns
● Industrial and office parks
● Some sidewalks
● Some signalized crosswalks
● Some signalized
intersections
● Visible parking
Transit Investments
● Flex Bus Service
● Express Bus
● Local Bus
● Park and Ride Lots
● Shuttles
● Heavy Rail
● Light Rail
29
30. This is an example of an area that is more difficult to serve
efficiently by bus es. Large parking lots and building set-backs
make it less convenient for transit passengers to access.
31. 31
This is an example of an area with fewer homes and
businesses, where less frequent bus service may be more
appropriate.
32. Suburban Neighborhoods
Land Use Patterns
● Subdivisions
● Less Compact Housing and
Businesses
● Few Sidewalks, Crosswalks
or Signalized intersections
● Visible Parking
Transit Investments
● Express Bus
● Local Bus
● Park and Ride Lots
● Neighborhood Circulators
● Flex Bus Service
● Light Rail
32
34. 34
This is an example of an area with no sidewalks, making it less
convenient for people to walk to a bus stop.
35. 35
Review the map on the next slide. Click on the pencil and email us a list of three
areas where you would like to see more investment in transit. For example,
between downtown Columbus and Columbus International Airport or other
popular destination, suburb to suburb – be specific , a specific neighborhood, etc.
