Today I attended a meeting at the Glendale Public Library for the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) transportation corrdination meeting. This meeting was very interesting because is provided information from cities, for profit organizations, and non profit organizations. This is one of the first meetings that I have attended that focused on the transportation resources of the region regardless of the type of organization.
Dial-a-Ride and other ADA service was a big topic at the meeting. It was not just talking about the service that is available, but also talking about how to better utilize the resouces such as staff and vehicles. I am impressed that their is a commitee out there that is really focused on the needs of the public without a lot of political road blocks. The meetings are open to the public and they try to hold each meeting in a different location around the valley to allow people in all parts of the region with an oppportunity to attend.
