| Abstract | This report is the final component of a multi-year transit feasibility study conducted by the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center on behalf fo the five Towns of the East End. The initial transit conceptunder evaluation, a proposed Coordinated Rail-Bus Network, had its origins in the Sustainable East End Development Strategies (SEEDS) process as a means of improving local mobility. During the final stages of SEEDS, the concept was developed into a more comprehensive transit proposal by a local nonprofit advocacy group, Five Town Rural Transit, Inc. (5TRT). Using funds made available from a Shared Municipal Services Incentative Grant, the five Towns signed an agreement with the Volpe Center in 2007 for an external evaluation of this proposal. |
