The Pioneer Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (PVMPO) adopted the last Coordinated Public Transportation – Human Service Transportation Plan in 2022. This document is a DRAFT update of that 2020 Plan and reflects changes in federal grant programs, as well as changes in the needs of the transportation disadvantaged populations in the Region.
The purpose of this 2025 update is to help improve transportation services for persons with disabilities, older adults, and individuals with lower incomes in the Pioneer Valley Region through a better coordinated transportation system. This update provides a framework for the development of projects for municipalities, towns, counties, tribal governments, regional transit authorities (RTAs), and private taxi operators that will address the transportation needs of the target populations, by ensuring that public transportation and human service agencies coordinate transportation resources offered through multiple FTA programs. The needs identified in this Plan will be used to evaluate, and rank eligible projects for various state and federal transportation grants.
