Public Transportation

Greene County Coordinated Transportation Plan

The Federal Transportation Administration Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act mandates that projects for specific Federal Transit Administration (FTA) programs be included in a locally developed, public transit-human services transportation plan. The purpose of this coordinated plan is to identify ways to improve transportation services in Greene County and access to surrounding counties for persons with disabilities, older adults and individuals with lower incomes.
