April 28, 2025

We are excited to share that our recent study on public transport accessibility in Medellín in Colombia (we have reported on this: https://remote-sensing.org/new-publication-on-the-importance-of-semiformal-transport/ ) has been selected for the global PLOS Showcase on the Kudos platform.

 

The research highlights the crucial role of Medellín’s Minibuses in improving mobility for underserved communities and how these semiformal transport systems are vital for making cities more inclusive and connected.
