TRANSPORTATION SERVICES INTEGRATION PROJECT. FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

The study was conducted for the Tri-County Region consisting of Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties in Michigan. A very large number of special transportation agencies are involved in serving the elderly, handicapped and low-income populations in the area with apparently no coordination among each other. The report documents a brief outline of interim reports besides decision rules for participation in a coordinated system, role of the Central Coordinating Agency, procedures for making services available to a general user and/or clients of an agency, results of an experimental set up for coordination of services, fare structure and other details.
