York Public Transit Association Recognizes Schuyler County
At the recent New York Public Transit Association’s Annual Conference in Saratoga Springs, the “Achievements in Marketing” award was presented to Amber Simmons, Schuyler County Mobility Manager along with Tina Hager, and Jane Davis, Mobility Managers from Chemung County and Steuben County respectively.
The award recognized the regional cooperative transportation education and public information efforts of the three Mobility Managers as demonstrated through the recently published “Need a Ride?” 2011 Tri-County Bus Map and Guide. The guide is available at all Chemung, Schuyler, Steuben Workforce New York locations, as well as other offices and organizations in Chemung, Schuyler and Steuben Counties, and through public transportation providers. The easy-to-use guide is intended to make transportation more accessible to all residents of the area, simplify transit use to all local riders and to increase transit ridership.
Mobility Management is an approach for organizing and coordinating transportation resources in order to provide efficient and accessible services. Mobility Managers serve as liaisons for the public, human service organizations, public transportation, and employers seeking information and assistance.
