My name is Candace Brakewood, and I am an Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. This website contains information on my latest research, publications, presentations and news stories.
One of my ongoing research projects about microtransit is PATH-TN: Partnership for AI-driven Multimodal Transportation Services Integration in Tennessee Cities. As part of PATH-TN, we have developed a Microtransit Survey Toolkit, which you can download for free here.
Another one of my ongoing research projects aims to understand the impact of New York City’s congestion pricing program on transit ridership. A recent press release summarizes the scope of my congestion pricing project. If you are interested in learning about our preliminary results, please contact me via email.
I am also involved with the Center for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety and recently published two reports related to pedestrian safety at bus stops. The first report identifies safety research priorities for pedestrians at bus stop and can be downloaded here. The second report uses CRSS data to analyze bus stop safety and can be downloaded for free here.
Finally, I am the Principal Investigator on TCRP Project A49: Fare Policies, Structures and Technologies, which is ongoing.
