Who We Are

At Mpact, we see the potential for transit and mobility, land use and development —taken together — to create better lives and brighter futures.

We support and build a network of leaders, practitioners and advocates dedicated to engaging with communities to define what’s possible and how to get there.

We focus on the whole community built around transit and multimodal investments, from housing to business and economic development, including the implications for health, safety, equity, sustainability, access to opportunity and overall quality of life.

M is for mobility, movement and momentum; pact is for the agreement with community about the vision transit and development projects are meant to achieve.
