Working Together to Help Meet Transportation Needs

State Office Transportation Coordinator Kent Carroll and Northwest Region Waitlist & Community Affairs Workstream Lead Octavius Jackson have attended several board meetings for the Transportation Disadvantaged program. These meetings are held throughout the region.

By attending and actively participating in these meetings, Carroll and Jackson represent the agency and collect data about rider trends for sponsored and unsponsored trips to ensure that customers are using appropriate regional transportation options. These transportation resources have proven vital in many areas affected by hurricanes.

The mission of these board meetings is to work together to ensure that riders have access to high-quality transportation services. They also work to stimulate economic growth in local counties.
