Save The JO – Video #3 Comments From the JCT Public Meeting
Posted by Transit Action Network on July 20, 2012
Johnson County Transit held a public meeting on July 11th* to discuss the proposed 2013 eliminations and reductions to 90% of The JO routes. Reductions were made to routes at the beginning of 2012 and, unless something changes in the budget forecasts, additional eliminations are expected in 2014. Listen to the concerns and stories of some of the participants and responses from Johnson County Transit (JCT) staff. 
Transit in Johnson County is headed in the wrong direction.
Please attend:
Johnson County Board of County Commissioners Public Budget Hearing
July 23rd @ 7 pm

Show your support to improve and expand The JO and tell your story to the Commissioners. Ask the Commission to support transit, honor their commitment to replace the federal CMAQ funds for both the Connex and the 75th Street-Quivira routes, and find the necessary dedicated funding for the long-term health of transit in Johnson County.
