Description

Press release from City of Fort Worth: May 20, 2021 The North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) staff has begun updating Access North Texas, the regional public transportation coordination plan, to document transportation needs and challenges for older adults, individuals with disabilities, low-income individuals and transportation-disadvantaged people.  The effort kicked off in April and is expected to be finalized next spring, with implementation set for summer 2022. Access North Texas is an effort to coordinate public, human service and community transportation in the 16-county region, as well as outline strategies to improve access to work, medical appointments, education and the community over the next four years. Public outreach is being conducted virtually through county-specific virtual meetings, a public transportation survey and NCTCOG's Map Your Experience tool. These three public outreach efforts will continue through July and will provide opportunities for residents to identify transportation needs in their communities.
