Department of Transportation: Transit Vision Plan
Transit Vision Plan: (Written by Alicia Denning)
During the last community meeting, representatives from Prince George’s Department of Public Works and Transportation presented their Transit Vision Plan (TVP) to expand and optimize transportation services in the county. They shared information about many of the current services they offer including bus (TheBus), paratransit (Call-a-Bus) and Microtransit (PGC Link)services. For information on these services visit: https://pgccouncil.us/725/Transportation. A hard copy of the services will be available if you don’t have computer access. They also shared information pertaining to their efforts to improve services based on community feedback. We’d like to encourage you all to ensure your needs are reflected in the TVP, by filling out the survey (available in English and Spanish) at https://bit.ly/TVPSurvey. Paper copies of the survey will be available at future meetings. For additional questions on transit services or the TVP, email pgtransit@co.pg.md.us
