IWG sets first quarterly meeting of 2016 for Jan. 26 in Boise
BOISE – Updates on the Veteran Wheelchair Program initiative and Idaho’s Public Transportation Statewide Plan, along with introducing new group members, will be topics of Idaho’s Interagency Working Group (IWG) meeting Jan. 26 in Boise.
The meeting will be held Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. in
Room 212 at the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) Headquarters, 3311 W.
State St.
ITD will also present the IWG program and data report during
the group’s first quarterly meeting of the new year.
The IWG was created in Idaho Code 40-514 to “advise and assist the
department in analyzing public transportation needs, identifying areas for
coordination, and developing strategies for eliminating procedural and
regulatory barriers to coordination at the state level.”
Today, the IWG tackles many important public transportation
issues, including policies and statutes, data collection and review from each
agency, and unique assignments as voted on by the group to help reduce barriers
and increase coordination.
The meeting is open to the public and may also be accessed by
calling toll free (888) 211-0253 or, with charges, (208) 332-7885. Use PIN number 511.
