In late 2022, the Jefferson County Board of Legislators adopted a resolution to apply for 5311 funds from the NYS Department of Transportation (DOT) for capital expenditures associated with creating a public transportation system throughout Jefferson County. In its application, the County requested money to purchase six buses and funds to contract with a Mobility Manager to facilitate the County’s startup program. The County is patiently awaiting approval from the State DOT.
In March 2023, the County created a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Mobility Management for its startup county-wide public transportation system.
As the 5311 application and RFP progress, County Planning Department staff will update the information here.
