Make your voice heard! The Montana Legislature's Transportation Interim Committee (TIC) is conducting a study on ways to improve transportation service and public transit.

TAKE THE SURVEY HERE: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/VSYDGX6

Your input will directly inform strategic planning and will ensure that future public transportation initiatives align with the needs of our communities. By analyzing community feedback, the committee can pinpoint gaps in service, evaluate demand for new or expanded transportation options, and prioritize enhancements to existing systems.

It takes about 10 minutes to fill out.

Survey closes at noon on Friday, April 10.

If you have comments or questions, you can visit the TIC at: https://committees.legmt.gov/ #/nonStandingCommittees/32

You can submit public comment in writing, attend TIC meetings virtually, or join the TIC in person in Helena at an interim meeting.

Please take the time to complete this survey and forward to any others that might be interested.

Explore, track, and stay informed on committee activity in Montana with the Montana Legislature Committee Explorer application. Access detailed information, monitor committee progress, and engage with the legislative process easily from your desktop or mobile device.
