SUMMARY:MPTA and CMT Present: State of Transit in Missouri
DESCRIPTION:The Missouri Public Transit Association (MPTA) in partnership with the St. Louis transit advocacy organization Citizens for Modern Transit (CMT) has announced plans for its next virtual “Talking Transit” event\, which is set for Tuesday\, November 19\, at 8:30 a.m. via ZOOM. This event will highlight the state of transit in Missouri following a historic win at the Missouri State Legislature this year that held state funding for the second year in a row at $11.7 million. Pre-registration is required and can be completed online by following the link here. \nOn the heels of securing $11.7 million in transit funding from the state that is being split amongst the 32 transit providers operating in Missouri\, those in attendance will learn about the latest plans for the two largest metropolitan areas along with the largest rural provider in the state. The panel discussion will feature Taulby Roach\, President and CEO of Bi-State Development\, which operates Metro Transit for the St. Louis region; Frank White\, III\, President and CEO of the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority (KCATA); Tom Gerend\, executive director of the KC Streetcar; and Dorothy Yeager\, Executive Director of OATS\, the largest rural transit provider in the country. It will be moderated by Kimberly Cella\, Executive Director of Citizens for Modern Transit and the Missouri Public Transit Association. \n“There is a lot to be excited about as it relates to transit in Missouri\,” Cella said. “This panel will take a look at the historic wins and challenges this year and discuss where each of their organizations go from here.  We encourage those with an interest in the impacts of public transit access to join this online forum.” \nREGISTER HERE
