Morgantown Monongalia MPO Transit Short and Medium Range Operations Plan

Request for Qualifications

BACKGROUND

Morgantown West Virginia is home to a diverse population focused on West Virginia University, two major hospitals, and several large commercial and governmental employers. Transit service provided by Mountain Line Transit plays a very significant role in the community's overall transportation picture.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Morgantown Monongalia Metropolitan Planning Organization (MMMPO) is assisting the Mountain Line Transit Authority in developing a short to medium term strategic plan for the transit systems operations. Unexpected changes to the infrastructure available to the Authority have necessitated that the Authority change its routes to accommodate its recently relocated transfer center. This change means that the Authority needs to reevaluate how it may expect to operate now and in the near future. This plan is to address that need.

The plan is a joint effort with WV Division of Highways, the WV Division of Public Transit, Mountain Line Transit and the Morgantown Monongalia MPO. It will serve as an important implementation document for programming and designing transit service throughout the area.
