The current federal legislation, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), requires the establishment of a locally developed, coordinated public transit-human services transportation plan. This plan analyzes gaps in transportation services for the identified populations and provides guidance for the use of funds from the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) Section 5310 Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities Program. All projects selected by TARC for funding from FTA Section 5310 must be derived from this coordinated plan and be chosen.
This plan serves as a strategy for enhancing mobility for seniors and persons with disabilities in the KIPDA region (Bullitt, Henry, Jefferson, Oldham, Spencer, Shelby, and Trimble counties in Kentucky and Clark and Floyd counties in Indiana).
