Wednesday, March 10, at 4:30 PM

Every vibrant community has multiple efficient, affordable, and accessible transportation options.

The Greater Des Moines Partnership’s Transit Future Work Group is looking at long-term challenges and opportunities, including new technologies, changing regional demographics, and the economic and environmental benefits of transportation choices, whether that is walking, riding the bus, riding a bicycle, driving, ride-sharing, or some combination of modes.

Topics considered:

  • What has been learned during the COVID-19 period?
  • Update on the proposed relocation of offices and maintenance facilities.
  • The revised funding formula.
  • Efforts to find funding sources other than just property taxes.
  • Q&A

Panelist:
