That single flat tire, which seems like a simple problem, also can have huge impacts <br />on a company - as they now have to find someone to cover a shift, eventually leading to high <br />rates of employee turnover, and increased hiring and retention costs. Imagine this scaling <br />across a city, and you start to see how basic transportation access plays such a critical role in <br />the stability of residents, employers, and communities. Transportation is a primary barrier to <br />maintaining stable employment, a problem that has frustrated countless public and private <br />entities. <br /> <br />South Bend has started to pioneer an innovative approach to this problem - blending the future <br />of transportation technology with an understanding of the daily lives of residents and their <br />employers.

In October of 2018, South Bend was selected as as one of nine winners to the <br />Bloomberg Mayors Challenge, along with Los Angeles, CA; Denver, CO; Fort Collins, CO; <br />Durham, NC; Georgetown, TX; New Rochelle, NY; and Philadelphia, PA. South Bend will <br />receive $1 million to continue refining solutions to transportation barriers over the next three <br />years. <br /> <br />About the Champion Phase <br /> <br />Transportation is the primary barrier to maintaining stable employment, a problem that has <br />frustrated countless public and private entities. The City of South Bend has successfully <br />piloted a program that reliably gets residents to work and is financially sustainable without <br /> <br />7 of 9 <br /> <br /> <br />
