Join us this week for an engaging session featuring two regional leaders focused on expanding access to transportation across the Gorge.
Eve Elderwell, WA Travel Trainer with Regional Gorge Public Transit, and Sara Crook, OR Travel Trainer with Mid-Columbia Economic Development District, will introduce our growing regional transit system and the travel training programs that help individuals confidently navigate public transportation.
They will discuss how much the system has grown over the past decade, the services currently available, and how travel training supports access for all—helping improve mobility and independence throughout our communities.
This is a great opportunity to learn about regional transit initiatives and how they impact residents, businesses, and community services.
