Coborrus County Transportation Services (CCTS) Finol Report — September 2015 <br />A county employee maintains the website at: <br />https: / /www.cabarruscounty. us /government/ departments /transportation/transportation- <br />services/. <br />The homepage is attractive, but all the inside pages are text only and are written in <br />government policy language. The marketing value of the website could benefit significantly <br />from funding artistic enhancements of a marketing /graphic artist. There are no links to <br />other transportation systems or options, which re- enforces the point that CCTS is not <br />coordinated with other transportation systems. <br />In collaboration with CK Rider Transit, the two agencies could submit information in the <br />General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) format to provide schedules and geographic <br />information to Google Maps for public consumption. This would be especially useful if a <br />zonal service was ever initiated. <br />Monthly Pass Program — Young Adult Campaign for Colleges and Youth Centers <br />Rowan - Cabarrus Community College and UNCC should be contacted to see if any of their <br />commute students come from the CCTS coverage area. <br />CCTS should develop a survey targeted at the college age student population to see if any <br />students might be eligible to ride CCTS using Rural General Public or EDTAP funding. The <br />survey could also be administered to graduating high school seniors who may be looking for <br />transportation options to commute to college. Any discounted fares should be covered by <br />activity fees or direct contribution from the budgets of the institutions. <br />For County youth transportation, the Monthly Pass Program should be extended to all <br />youth programs in the summer months. <br />9.7 VOLUNTEER DRIVERS <br />The Van Lending Policy spurred the idea that volunteers may already be organizing trips <br />composed of eligible riders, who are making simple trips that are not being registered. <br />Analyzing the past Van Lending activity could uncover an entire market of riders that can <br />be served in off -peak periods, when vehicles would otherwise be dormant. If the analysis <br />proves that eligible riders are being transported then this effort needs to be redefined as a <br />volunteer driver program, so that the trips can help improve the CCTS performance <br />statistics. <br />Attachment number 1 \n <br />F -3 Page 164 <br />
