Vermont Public Transit Policy Plan Public Forum

Wednesday, November 28, 2018
9:00 am – 11:00 am

110 W Canal St, Winooski, VT 05404

The Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) is updating the Vermont Public Transit Policy Plan (PTPP). The PTPP will quantify Vermont’s transit needs, as well as recommend programmatic and policy initiatives to strengthen the statewide transit system — outlining a 10-year vision for transit service in Vermont.

How will this impact the rider? The PTPP will identify funding priorities for future years. Statewide public transportation funding priorities can impact funding and resources available to your local transit services — which can impact frequency of service, days of service, and location of service.

VTrans will be holding regional forums throughout the state this fall to gather input on existing services, service gaps and challenges, and potential solutions from stakeholders and transit riders. Mark your calendar for Wednesday, November 28th at 9:00am at the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission office (110 West Canal Street, Suite 202, Winooski). You can also provide feedback via an interactive online survey: http://vtrans.vermont.gov/planning/PTPP

The State of Vermont views public transportation as “an important matter of State concern, essential to the economic growth of the State and to the public health, safety, and welfare of present and future generations of Vermonters.” Please come share your experiences and help us shape the future of public transportation in your region.
