Develop and implement an app that makes it possible for passengers to report security issues

The City of Greensboro will receive funding to implement an application that allows transit users to anonymously report safety and security issues ocurring in the transit system directly to dispatchers for instant response. In order to encourage widespread use of the application, the city also will conduct marketing and outreach activities to educate riders and the public on using the application.
