Posted

OTTAWA - The Human Services Transportation Plan (HSTP) Transportation Committee meetings for 2018 have been announced. The meetings for Region 3 (Bureau, DeKalb, Grundy, Kendall, LaSalle, Lee, Ogle and Putnam counties) will be held on Jan. 26 at the Mendota Moose Lodge; March 23 at Kendall Area Transit VAC Office Annex; May 25 at the Mendota Moose Lodge; July 27 at Bureau/Putnam Area Transportation System; Sept. 28 at the Mendota Moose Lodge; and Nov. 30 at Lee-Ogle Transit Systems. All meetings take place on Fridays and begin at 10 a.m.

Individuals with an interest in public transportation are strongly encouraged to attend, especially human service organizations serving individuals who use public transportation.

The Regional Transportation Committee is responsible for the development and implementation of the HSTP, which identifies transportation needs and develops solutions to improve transportation services for the public. An emphasis is placed on seniors, people with disabilities, individuals with lower incomes and veterans.

The Illinois Department of Transportation has formed an agreement with North Central Illinois Council of Governments (NCICG) for the purposes of preparing, implementing, and updating the plans for this region.
