Transportation Equity and Communities at Risk: Refugee Populations and Transport

In order to get to new jobs, schools, hospitals, community centers, and a raft of other services necessary to help them transition to their new lives, refugees must be able to travel in a timely and cost-efficient manner. This project examines the transportation infrastructure, utility, and exclusion of the potentially 'at-risk' refugee community in the state of Vermont.
