Project 3 - This Versus That (Group 6)

GoalFor our project we compared the ‘New York City

Subway’ to the ‘Citibike’. The group of commuters we focused on are weekday office workers. They go to the office five times a week and work on average of 251

days a year. With our infographic we wanted to illustrate which mode of transport would be best for them

depending on the three variables time, price and location.
