The Transportation Disadvantaged Local Coordinating Board (TDLCB) focuses on transportation needs of the disadvantaged in our community, including individuals with physical and economic challenges and senior citizens. This board specifically coordinates the needs of people unable to use traditional bus services.
Composed of representatives from local governments and transportation providers, (see roster below) the primary responsibility of TDLCB is to evaluate the service provided by the local Community Transportation Coordinator (CTC) for the three county area – ACCESS LYNX.
TDLCB reviews price and service levels, safety concerns, eligibility and other pertinent issues. Here is the current roster for the TDLCB:
