LaBella’s Principal Transportation Planner, Jesse Vogl, AICP, will be presenting at the New York Public Transit Association’s (NYPTA) 2026 Annual Conference and Expo, taking place October 18–20 in Syracuse, New York.
On Monday, October 19, at 4:15 p.m., Jesse will co-present “More Than a Bus Pass—Turning Partnerships Into Transit Service” alongside Matthew Rosenbloom-Jones, General Manager at Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit, and Jonathan Scherzer, Director of Business Development at Capital District Transportation Authority.
Major employers, institutions, and housing developments can anchor transit ridership and revenue—but unlocking that value requires a strategic structural framework. During this session, Jesse, Matthew, and Jonathan will compare several mechanisms and agreement types to show how agencies can successfully initiate partnerships, price service appropriately, and coordinate marketing, operations, and data analysis to deliver stronger regionwide mobility.
