Community invited to public transportation improvement meeting
The Department of Public Works will be holding a public meeting on the Guam Transportation Improvement Plan Sept. 25.
According to a press release, the GTIP provides a "four-year plan that is financially feasible." It also presents the DPW's priorities for the expenditure of its federal aid highway program funding for the fiscal period 2024-2027.
One of the most common challenges people have in getting education beyond the public school system, or getting to and from work, is transportation. However, public transportation has been a challenge for the government as it works to balance the cost of the program while also accommodating the different needs of community members at affordable rates. The government, due to a shortage of buses, has held contracts with private companies that would provide busing services for at least a portion of the island's overall routes.
The meeting to discuss this latest plan that addresses past woes will be held from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 25, at the Sinajana Community Center. The public is invited to review the plan at guamtransportationprogram.com and provide feedback.
