KBRPC Transit Plan Completed

The KBRPC Transit Coordination Plan encompasses all of the KBRPC region and includes participation from all public, private, and non-profit transportation providers as well as local area providers. The strategies and actions discussed in the plan will be used to determine funding priorities through three separate programs: Transportation or Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities, Job Access and Reverse Commute, and New Freedom. Current grant applications will immediately benefit from the identification of strategies for improved transportation coordination, and future applications will rely upon guidance from this plan to promote projects at the state and national levels.
Key elements included in the plan are:
• An assessment of transportation needs for individuals with disabilities, older adults and persons with limited incomes;
• An inventory of available services that identifies areas of redundant service and gaps in services;
• Strategies to address the identified gaps in services;
• Identifications of coordination actions to eliminate or reduce duplication in services and strategies for more efficient utilization of resources;
• Prioritization of implementation strategies.
