The Reykjavík bus company, Strætó, tasked us with finding ways to integrate UN Sustainable Development Goals 3, 4, and 5 into their operations. Using data from qualitative observation, expert interviews, GIS mapping, online surveys, and interviews with bus drivers, we created informational posters to direct bus patrons to information regarding health and well-being, quality education, and gender equality. We also advised Strætó on which routes and languages would be most effective for poster display. The data also led to recommendations; the addition of new bus stops at health and education centers, and undertaking studies one addressing rider perceptions of safety, and one the feasibility of special rural health access routes.
