Transit Needs Study

  1. Project Overview
  2. Public Involvement
  3. Reports

From 2025 through early 2026, Washington County will be updating a 2018 Transit Needs Study, to evaluate the transportation needs of Washington County residents, with a focus on people with disabilities, limited mobility, seniors, people with low or limited income, transit dependent populations, and other who need access to jobs with non-traditional work hours.

While the goals and objectives from the 2018 study remain the same, an update is necessary to better understand changing transportation realities and best prepare the county to address the needs of all the different types of communities within the county’s borders. 

Project Objectives

  • Evaluate the current state of transportation for transit-dependent individuals in Washington County.
  • Identify gaps and barriers to mobility.
  • Identify and quantify county resources being used to provide transportation services.
  • Identify future transportation needs.
  • Recommend strategies to address those needs.
