Human mobility is a necessity for everyone. Reliable and consistent transportation allows individuals the opportunity to access the destinations and services they need or desire.

Primarily, Allen County is automobile oriented. Many individuals own their own vehicles that allow them to transport themselves and their families. However, there are many individuals
who are unable to transport themselves because of age, disability, or economic circumstances.

Many of these individuals rely on the transportation services provided by public transit, human service transportation providers, and private transportation providers.

Adequate and reliable transportation is crucial to maintaining and growing the livability within Allen County communities. It is also vital for those who wish to age in place, specifically older
adults and individuals with disabilities. The reliance on transportation services is evident with the provision of approximately 1,630,000 one-way trips in 2023 by the public and human service transportation providers that operate within Allen County and does not even include trips provided by private providers and area agencies or groups whose statistics are not tracked.

Coordination between all providers is needed to provide the most efficient and comprehensive transportation services to individuals with disabilities, older adults, and persons with limited
incomes within Allen County.

The Northeastern Indiana Regional Coordinating Council (NIRCC), through the assistance of the Transit Planning Committee (TPC) of the Urban Transportation Advisory Board (UTAB), has updated and prepared the following document, 2024-2028 Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan for Allen County.

This plan identifies the available services, the
transportation needs of individuals with disabilities, older adults, and persons with limited incomes, the transportation service gaps, strategies to address those gaps, and projects that
meet the identified strategies. The plan is intended to increase and promote coordination between all transportation providers within Allen County to increase the efficiency and comprehensiveness of the transportation services that are provided.

NIRCC and the TPC feel that coordination between all transportation providers within Allen County is the key to providing efficient and comprehensive transportation services.
Transportation coordination and cooperation has been occurring between the providers in Allen  County for many years. This Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan will serve to increase and strengthen the transportation services that are offered here in Allen County.
