Bridging the Rural Mobility Gap: Introducing the Rural Mobility Index (RMI)

Speaker: Sarah Mvuma

Rural communities often face unique mobility challenges, including long travel distances, limited transit options, and high transportation costs. This webinar introduces the Rural Mobility Index (RMI), a composite framework designed to capture multidimensional mobility constraints in rural areas. Learn how the RMI bridges the gap between urban-focused models and rural realities to help transportation planners better target interventions where they’re needed most.
