Highlights

The most significant hindrance to the coordination of the transportation of people participating in federally funded grant programs appears to be confusion at all government levels about the extent of coordination federally funded projects may engage in. The following twelve transportation projects were studied in an effort to determine the extent of coordination achieved by each project, the circumstances that made coordination possible, and the hindrances that impeded coordination: (1) the Appalachian Ohio Regional Transit Association, Athens, Ohio; (2) the Community Action Program of Belknap-Merrimack Counties, Inc., Concord, New Hampshire; (3) the Chelan-Douglas Council on Aging, Wenatchee, Washington; (4) the Delaware Authority for Specialized Transportation, Wilmington, Delaware; (5) The Fare Free Transportation System, Cape May County, New Jersey; (6) Older Adults Transportation Service, Inc., Columbia, Missouri; (7) Progress for People Human Resources Agency, Dunlap, Tennessee; (8) Roanoke Agencies Dial-A-Ride System, Roanoke, Virginia; (9) Senior Citizens Transportation, Inc., Warwick, Rhode Island; (10) The Transportation Remuneration Incentive Program, State of West Virginia; (11) Valley Transit District, Derby, Connecticut; and (12) federally funded transportation in Washington County, Oregon.
