The IWG was created by 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.”
The group 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.
