Abstract This report was prepared by Ecosometrics, Inc. for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, which sponsored its preparation in part with a grant from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration, The consultant developed a process for planning coordinated elderly and handicapped transportation services within rural and small urban counties; tested this process by preparing plans in three specific Wisconsin counties; and documented the generic planning process so that it could be applied elsewhere. The planning process described includes an analytical feature which is intended to indicate whether coordination will produce beneficial results. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation is considering making this manual and the county plans that are based on it generally available to planning organizations and other interested parties in Wisconsin. It does not intend to make plans of this type a requirement, but will instead encourage voluntary planning efforts. The manual should therefore be viewed as a resource used by the state, but not necessarily as a rigid guideline. The contents of this report reflect the views of Ecosometrics, Inc. which is responsible for the facts and the accuracy of the data presented herein. The contents do not necessarily reflect the official views or policy of the U. S. Department of Transportation. This report does not constitute a standard, specification or regulation.
