Jacksonville Regional Transportation Center (JRTC) at LaVilla Boardroom (314)
100 LaVilla Center Drive,The Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) would like to cordially invite the public to attend an upcoming meeting to discuss the 2024 Coordinated Mobility Plan as well as the Transit Development Plan (TDP) 2024 Major Update. The purpose of the meeting is to collect input for the Goals and Objectives of these two plans being developed by the JTA.
Federal transit law requires the Coordinated Mobility Plan to identify the transportation needs of individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people with low incomes; provide strategies for meeting those needs; and prioritize transportation services for funding and implementation. Representatives will give a short presentation, staff will be available to discuss the plan, and the public will have to opportunity to provide comments.
Likewise, federal and Florida law requires, and JTA encourages, public involvement in the TDP development process. JTA updates the TDP every five years with plans for improving transit service and encouraging transit use. Our discussion will revisit the 2019 TDP and gather from the public how they would like to see transit service improve access in their communities.
JTA is holding joint meetings and coordinating the development of both the Coordinated Plan and the TDP update to reflect both the public’s general interest in transportation issues facing their communities and the cooperative nature of the two plans. JTA acknowledges the effort required to involve oneself in public processes like this one and believes that the public need not meet separately to share similar information.
All interested persons or groups are encouraged to attend and participate. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, religion, gender, age, national origin, disability, or familial status. Anyone requiring special accommodations should contact Tsopie Trottie at 904-630-3107 or ttrottie@jtafla.com no later than seven days prior to the meeting. These meetings will be ADA accessible.
