Citizen input is being sought over the future of public transportation in Bend.
The Metropolitan Planning Organization has released their next round of plans for public transportation.
The plans include both long-range, spanning about 20 years and shorter plans that are expected to happen for fiscal years 2024-27.
“We want to know what people’s needs challenges are when it comes to transportation. We relay that information to our decision makers,” said Andrea Napoli, senior planner for the Metropolitan Planning Organization.
