Service Description: Points provide location of the mobility hubs in the San Francisco Bay Region that are part of the Regional Mobility Hubs program. Mobility hubs are community anchors that enable travelers of all backgrounds and abilities to access multiple travel options — including shared scooters, bicycles and cars, and transit — as well as supportive amenities in a cohesive space.

Description: With transportation services and infrastructure evolving rapidly, mobility hubs present an opportunity to flexibly design and integrate a variety of sustainable transportation options to enhance connectivity across the region. Unprecedented growth, affordability challenges, the climate crisis, and changing travel behaviors resulting from the pandemic show the need to prioritize low emission transportation options that support resiliency, choice, and embrace future changes in technology.
The mobility hub program is a Climate Initiative Strategy from Plan Bay Area 2050. The primary goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing vehicle miles traveled. The program supports other regional and Plan Bay Area goals of increasing transit access and connectivity, focusing growth, increasing transit-oriented development and providing viable travel options to all Bay Area communities.
To meet regional and Plan Bay Area 2050 goals, the methodology developed key objectives for the hub sites:
- Coordinated Mobility: sites with frequent and interjurisdictional transit service;
- Climate Action: potential to convert low-occupancy, solo vehicle trips to other sustainable modes such as transit, shared mobility options, biking, and walking; and
- Equitable Mobility: ability to achieve equitable outcomes through need-based mobility and anti-displacement measures.
To meet these objectives, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) conducted analysis to discover the full universe of mobility hubs in the region based on existing and planned transit connections, major trip generators, and areas of mobility need. The siting analysis identified 1,691 potential mobility hub locations that offer connections into the local and regional transit network or areas of mobility need with proximity to a potential hub anchor site. The resulting universe of locations were then categorized by hub typology based on the transportation and land use factors surrounding the hub site. All locations were then ranked based on factors that included transit connectivity, pedestrian and bicycle access, areas with potential for shift from solo driving trips, and location in Priority Development Areas, MTC Equity Priority Communities, and communities at high risk of displacement.
The analysis process overlaid a grid (squares) over the region to divide it into small, equally sized grid cells. The tile grid enables consistent processing of different spatial data types such as points (like transit stops), lines (such as transit routes), and polygons (such as Priority Development Areas). Each tile represents a 1/4-mile square for all locations except in the region’s most dense cities: Oakland, San Francisco, and San Jose. In these cities, the tiles are 520 by 520 feet. With this approach, each tile captures the different characteristics of the area it contains. As the location of the hubs are the geographic center of their respective tile, they can appear in the middle of developed blocks and over water. The analysis methodology can be found in the
