Click to view the Palm Tran video introducing service changes
From Sep. 30 - Oct. 3, Palm Tran invites you to try the public bus system for free as they introduce changes to all bus routes and schedules on Sun., Sep. 30. Branded as the Route Performance Maximization project or RPM, the service changes are meant to "rev up" the bus system to improve travel times and offer more direct service and extended hours for select routes. Plan your trip on the website at PalmTran.org or call Customer Service during operating hours at (561) 841-4BUS (4287). New guidebooks with updated maps, routes and schedules are available on the buses. Congratulations to Palm Tran on its largest service change in 22 years!

TPA to Host ADA Transition Plan Training - Oct. 11
The Palm Beach TPA will train local government and private sector representatives at an ADA transition plans workshop on Oct. 11. The instructor will be Dean Perkins, Florida Dept. of Transportation's ADA Coordinator. The time will be 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM, and the location will be on the first floor of the Vista Center at 2300 N. Jog Rd., West Palm Beach, FL 33411. To reserve a seat, contact Malissa Booth at MBooth@PalmBeachTPA.org or 561-684-4143.
The Palm Beach TPA is required by federal agencies to sign assurances that all recipients of federal funds allocated by the TPA have ADA transition plans in place. ADA transition plans outline a jurisdiction's assessment and plans for bringing their infrastructure into compliance with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Share a Link, Share an Opportunity
Are you part of a local government, a homeowners or neighborhood association, a business or civic organization or another group? Simply sharing a TPA website link in a newsletter or email can give many more Palm Beach County travelers an easy opportunity to share their transportation priorities with officials and decision-makers. Just ask your audience to go to PalmBeachTPA.org/participate for links to the brief survey in either English or Spanish. Please be sure to take the survey yourself and share with family, friends or co-workers!
