07/09/2021 11:46 AM

Greensboro Transit Agency and Transit Planning Consultant AECOM have partnered for an in-depth ADA Operational Analysis of the Access GSO paratransit service. Through this analysis, AECOM will evaluate service delivery, financial performance and eligibility processes, and identify ways to strengthen the system’s best practices. In addition, the AECOM team will work with GTA to refine and re-engineer other policies and operations to make the service sustainable and align with the community’s needs.

The study will include two phases:
Phase I – Operational Analysis (The evaluation of the current operations, processes, procedures, policies, resources and staff, development of alternatives and recommendations.)
Phase II – Implementation / Action Plan (The prioritization of recommendations and development of the Implementation Plan.)

As public input is a key component of the study, a virtual public meeting to share information and collect public feedback on the City’s ADA transit service will be held at 6 pm on Thursday, July 22 via Zoom. The meeting can be accessed via the GTA website at ridegta.com or using the following login information.
