Why a comprehensive transportation plan?
Because Central Indiana needs to determine the most efficient ways to move people around our region.

Potential benefits:

  • More choices for getting around—especially for those who don’t have transportation options
  • Reduced travel costs
  • Fewer emissions and less pollution
  • Attraction of businesses and jobs
  • Community growth and development
  • Improved community image and quality of life
  • Increased mobility options for persons with disabilities
  • Access to jobs in Indianapolis and Central Indiana

What does this mean to me?
You could choose between many different types of transportation to get where you want—train…bus…road…walkway…bikeway…

And these types of transportation could work together to get you even further—quicker and more conveniently than by car or bus alone.

Some potential benefits:

  • You could read the newspaper, work on your computer, access the Web or just relax on the bus or train
  • You could ride the train or bus to avoid costly all-day parking fees
  • You could travel quickly across town without hunting for a parking space
  • You could avoid highway rush hour—potential traffic backups and delays
  • You could do all this and save gas

The average cost to use a mass transit system like this in other cities is $3 to $4 per day.
