Take the Rural Transit Day Pledge
On Rural Transit Day (July 16) and every day throughout the year, I/we pledge to:
- Understand the unique needs of rural and tribal passengers and plan services to meet those needs.
- Provide all passengers with helpful, courteous, and respectful customer service.
- Deliver equal service to all passengers, regardless of age, background, abilities, income, or gender.
- Coordinate with community organizations to provide transportation to as many destinations as possible.
- Involve passengers, community stakeholders, and elected officials in service planning.
- Assure that vehicles and facilities are safe, clean, well-maintained, and comfortable.
- Invest in training and education that keep staff current, knowledgeable and skilled.
- Contribute to an organizational culture where staff are motivated and successful.
- Have a plan for potential emergencies and disasters and communicate that plan to all stakeholders.
- Keep up with and invest in new technologies and funding opportunities to continually improve services.
