This is not a listening session where you are asked to respond to specific questions, but an opportunity to give the CCAM your thoughts in writing regarding the future direction of the CCAM and could include suggestions on reauthorization. You can go to the site as many times as you wish, whenever you wish, within the two week period it is open. Two or three times is suggested since you can give your written recommendations, look for a response, and provide any clarification or additional comments you wish. The site will be monitored by a committee of transit experts in Washington DC, responses collated, and a report given to CCAM. Please consider giving your ideas on the needs as you see it to help improve transportation coordination.
Do you have suggestions and ideas that you would like to share with national leaders that can assist communities to increase access to affordable and reliable transportation services for people with disabilities, older adults, and people with limited incomes?
