Federal transit law requires that projects selected for funding under the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5310 program be derived from a locally developed Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan (or “Coordinated Plan”). This plan engages public transportation and human service providers in identifying the transportation needs of individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people with low incomes. This plan will provide strategies for meeting those needs and prioritize transportation services for funding and implementation.
