There's a push to improve and expand transportation options in Arapahoe County. It's part of the ArapaGO: Transit Connections Plan, for which the county is seeking community feedback.
Whether it's getting to work, school, or running errands, the ArapaGO Transit Connections Plan wants to better connect residents to where they need to go.
"We haven't approached the topic of transit or micro transit and micro mobility within Arapahoe County. So we're working on developing those services, considering what that looks like in the county. We've heard a lot from residents in the county that they would like better access to transit and micro transit services," said Jim Katzer, the county's Transportation Division Manager.
The plan includes adding more micromobility options, like bikes and scooters designed for shorter trips. The county also wants to add more micro-transit options, which are door-to-door services, allowing riders to request trips by phone or an app within a specific area.
"It meets the needs of those traveling a little better than a fixed-route bus. So, a micro transit is typically a minivan that's picking up the riders at specific locations and then dropping them off at that desired location," said Katzer.
