Subject:MoDOT Long Range Transportation Plan Survey – Action Requested
Attachments:MoDOT LRTP Survey.pdf; LRTP Fact Sheet 9-2017.pdf
Good morning,
MoDOT is updating the state’s Long Range Transportation Plan and we want to hear from you. We are soliciting your
input about priorities for the future of our transportation system through an online survey that will remain open until
Wednesday, Oct. 11. Our goal is to collect feedback from citizens and stakeholders across the state to ensure our
planning process reflects the needs of our customers.
We need your help spreading the word – please take a moment today to:
1.Take the survey: https://modotlrtp.metroquest.com/.
2.Share this survey with your network of stakeholders, friends, staff and colleagues. Share the survey link by
email, on your website, through social media and talk about it in your meetings.
3.Share this survey with those traditionally underserved, such as low‐income and minority households, who may
face challenges accessing employment and other services. Attached is a paper copy of the survey. An online
Spanish survey is posted on the long range transportation plan web page. MoDOT District Offices will have
computers for the public to access the survey along with paper copies.
Attached is a fact sheet about our long range plan which you can share.
MoDOT will be promoting this public input period through social media, media outreach, speaking opportunities and
direct outreach. Feel free to share our website, Facebook and Twitter posts.
In addition, you already received an invitation to the September 20 webinar where you will learn more about our
approach to updating the plan and what we’ve learned so far from the survey.
Sincerely,
MACHELLE WATKINS, P.E.
Transportation Planning Director| MoDOT | (573) 526-1374 | www.modot.org
September 2017
Missouri’s transportation system safely and reliably connects people with jobs and services, connects businesses with
suppliers and customers, moves students to and from school and allows visitors to explore the state’s many destinations.
To help make strategic decisions, meet Missouri’s future transportation needs and be good stewards of taxpayer dollars,
the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is updating the state’s Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP).
Transportation Goals
The current LRTP includes four goal areas, developed
with extensive stakeholder and public input:
Preservation: Take care of the transportation
system and services we enjoy today.
Safety: Keep all travelers safe, no matter what
mode of travel.
Economic Development: Make investments in the
transportation system that spur economic growth
and create jobs.
Connections and Choices: Give Missourians
better transportation choices.

For more information on MoDOT’s LRTP update, contact
Ben.Reeser@modot.mo.gov or 573-526-0123
We Want to Hear from You!
We want to be sure we’re focusing on the
needs that are most important to you.
Please visit our online survey and let us
know if the existing goals should be the
focus going forward. We also need your
input on transportation priorities.
MoDOTLRTP.metroquest.com
The online survey should take less than
10 minutes and can be completed from a
smartphone or a computer with internet
access. If you don’t have a computer at
home, visit your local library or MoDOT
district office to take the survey.
What is a Long Range Transportation Plan?
An LRTP sets a 25-year vision for the state’s
transportation system. Developing the LRTP is a multi-
modal planning effort that looks at the state’s highways
and bridges, as well as rail, ports,
aviation, transit and bicycle/
pedestrian accommodations.
The state’s current LRTP, A Vision
for Missouri’s Transportation
Future, was completed in 2014 and
it’s time for an update. The updated plan will set the
vision for transportation in Missouri through 2045.
Updating Missouri’s LRTP will include:
Reviewing the transportation system goals
from the current LRTP, which are used to guide
transportation investments.
Assessing transportation needs and customer
expectations for the next 25 years.
Reviewing MoDOT’s existing performance
measures for the transportation system.
Examining what resources will be available,
prioritizing the state’s transportation needs, and
updating MoDOT’s financial plan.
Exploring trends and innovations in transportation.
Looking at how Missouri can begin preparing for
Autonomous and Connected Vehicles (AV/CV).
The LRTP allows
MoDOT to assess
and address
the needs of its
customers.
Updating the Long Range Transportation Plan

Memorandum
TO: CAMPO Technical Committee
FROM: Katrina Williams, Transportation Planner
DATE: September 27, 2017
SUBJECT: FY2018 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) Administrative Modification
CAMPO staff has made an administrative modification to the FY2018 UPWP to
accommodate a roll-over of unspent Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds from
FY2017.
A portion of STP funds (estimated at $7,167) used for staff time and another portion of STP
funds ($30,000) that was designated for consulting services has been incorporated into the
FY2018 UPWP and budget.
The modification increases the UPWP budget by $30,000, reflective of the consulting
services funds. The estimated $7,167 in STP funds used for staff time supplants an
equivalent amount of Consolidated Planning Grant (CPG) funds.
The modification will impact FY2018 local match totals. This increases the City of Jefferson
local match total by $4,500 from $56,731 to $61,231 and increases the Cole County local
match total by $1,500 from $18,910 to $20,410. The Financial Summary in Appendix A of the
FY2018 UPWP provides a breakdown of these amounts.
The modification will not impact the CPG agreement between the City of Jefferson and the
Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission.
The Board of Directors opened a 7 day public comment period which will conclude end of
day October 2.

FROM: Katrina Williams, Transportation Planner
DATE: September 27, 2017
SUBJECT: 2018-2019 Training Education and Assessment Program (TEAP) Ranking
MoDOT has requested CAMPO to rank the TEAP grant applications for the MoDOT Central
District. The Technical Committee will be responsible for ranking the grant applications for the
areas outside of the CAMPO planning area. Because there is only one TEAP application within
the CAMPO region, from Holts Summit, it is not necessary to do any ranking within our
planning area.
CAMPO staff has ranked the projects and will provide an overview of each project and the
subsequent ranking. Technical Committee members will be asked to provide comments on the
staff recommended ranking.
Once the Technical Committee has completed the ranking process, staff will send an email to
the Board of Directors for comment and then submit the rankings to MoDOT.
MoDOT Central District will compile the rankings to determine the average score for each
application. The average scores, priority list and applications will be submitted to the MoDOT
Central Office who will award approximately 18 projects from all applications submitted
statewide over the 2-year period.
Technical Committee members can view TEAP applications on the CAMPO homepage using
the following link, www.jeffcitymo.org/campo.

FROM: Alex Rotenberry, Transportation Planner
DATE: September 27, 2017
SUBJECT: Coordinated Public Transit – Human Services Transportation Plan
Federal transit law, as amended by Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), and
continued in the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), requires that projects selected for
funding under the Section 5310 program be “included in a locally developed, coordinated public transit-
human services transportation plan” and that the plan be “developed and approved through a process that
included participation by seniors, individuals with disabilities, representatives of public, private, and
nonprofit transportation and human services providers and other members of the public.”
The coordinated plan is made up of four parts:
• An assessment of available services that identifies current transportation providers (public, private,
and nonprofit);
• An assessment of transportation needs for individuals with disabilities and seniors. This assessment
can be based on the experiences and perceptions of the planning partners or on more sophisticated
data collection efforts, and gaps in service;
• Strategies, activities, and/or projects to address the identified gaps between current services and
needs, as well as opportunities to achieve efficiencies in service delivery; and
• Priorities for implementation based on resources (from multiple program sources), time, and
feasibility for implementing specific strategies and/or activities identified.
In 2012, the CAMPO Board of Directors officially adopted an updated Coordinated Public Transit – Human
Services Transportation Plan. This update expanded the plan with new sections discussing what resulted
from the 2012 plan and a community profile. CAMPO staff sent surveys to over 100 human service and
public transportation agencies and met with stakeholders on August 22 and September 12, to help fulfill the
first three parts of the four listed above. A public meeting is scheduled for October 24 to fulfill the final point,
the prioritization of the strategies identified.
Presented is the 2017 Draft Coordinated Public Transit – Human Services Transportation Plan, minus the
aforementioned strategy prioritization to be completed in late October.

Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization

Introduction
The Coordinated Public Transit Human Services Transportation Plan (Coordinated Plan) is a locally
developed transportation plan. The goal of this plan is to enhance the existing transportation services
through agency coordination and addressing the unmet transportation needs of the elderly, disabled, and
low-income populations. In accordance with Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), the
coordinated plan must be in place for the agencies to apply for Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section
5310 funding.
Projects selected for funding under the 5310 Program for Elderly Individuals and Individuals with
Disabilities must be ‘‘derived from a locally developed Coordinated Public Transit human Services
Transportation Plan’’ and that the plan be ‘‘developed through a process that includes representatives of
public, private, and nonprofit transportation and human services providers and participation by the public.’’
The Coordinated Plan was developed through a combination of meetings, surveys, written
recommendations, and discussions with human services agencies that have an interest in transportation, the
clients and users of the transportation services, and with transportation providers and agencies such as the
CAMPO, the State, and Federal transportation agencies.
Goals
It is the goal of the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) to enhance
transportation services through the coordination of existing and future services. In order to achieve this goal,
this plan provides for the following:
1. An assessment of available services that identifies current providers (public, private and nonprofit);
Inventory and evaluate existing transportation services;
2. An assessment of transportation needs for individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people
with low incomes and identification of unmet needs;
3. Strategies and/or activities to address the identified gaps and achieve efficiencies in service delivery,
and;
4. Relative priorities for implementation based on resources, time, and feasibility for implementing
specific strategies/activities identified.
Progress since 2012
In the 2012 Coordinated Plan, CAMPO staff, working in conjunction with human service and public
transit agencies through meetings and an extensive survey, identified the following needs and gaps in
service:
1. Additional funds for capital investment and transportation service operation
2. Coordinated programs of transportation providers, employers, and human service agencies
3. Transportation service options in the evening and on the weekend for work, personal, recreational,
and program related transportation
4. Public transportation coverage outside City of Jefferson limits.
Discussions furthermore detailed that there was a concern of overlapping services occurring and a desire
to reduce redundancy and increase efficiency. Other items for discussion included a desire for increased
coordination and communication between transportation providers, human service agencies, and employers;
the need for transportation outside of traditional hours provided by existing transportation providers; the
lack of funding for specialized vehicles; and coverage issues for rural residents.
Finally, three strategies were proposed and prioritized by staff, with the assistance of key stakeholders from
the public transportation and human services agencies. They are as follows:
Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization
2
1. Improve the understanding or “awareness” of what the transportation service providers do for their
clients by health and human service agencies, clients and the public. The idea could be an
Educational Marketing concept that would include who the agencies are and what their services
entail to give a more detailed summary of transportation options available.
2. Develop better coordination among transportation providers through a mobility management
concept to optimize all transportation resources in a community to improve specialized
transportation for the elderly, disabled, low-income and others through a range of activities.
3. Develop and maintain a directory of human service agencies and transportation providers, which
will include federal, state, and local Government contacts, that incorporates transportation into their
activities. Include services, transportation capabilities and resources.
In 2015, the Mid-Missouri Regional Planning Commission and Central Missouri Community Action,
working with funding assistance from the Missouri Developmental Disabilities Council, hired a mobility
manager for the Mid-Missouri region. This position works to serves strategy two above, and to a lesser
extent strategy three.
Analysis of Special Needs Populations
The Coordinated Plan is designed to address the transportation needs of elderly, low-income, and
disabled residents of the CAMPO region. While the general public also uses public transportation, the
aforementioned demographics are those most impacted by access to transportation services. Without
transportation services, these groups may have limited access to many basic amenities and services. This
section includes analysis of low-income, elderly, and disabled populations in the region.
Each map or table is appropriately labeled with the source of the data, with all tables being derived
from 2010 U.S. Decennial Census data, while the maps use data from the 2014 5-year American Community
Survey (ACS). ACS 1-, 3-, and 5-year estimates are period estimates, meaning they represent the
characteristics of the population and housing over a specific data collection period. Data sets are combined
to produce 12 months, 36 months or 60 months of data (referred to as 1-year, 3-year and 5-year data.) The
population of a city or county determines whether the ACS will collect data for a 1-, 3-, or 5-year estimate.
Most of the CAMPO region falls into the 5-year estimate category. For consistency, the 2010-2014 ACS was
used to illustrate and analyze the demographics in this section.
Figure 1 shows the populations for municipalities and unincorporated areas within the CAMPO
planning area. In 2013, the CAMPO Board of Directors changed the boundaries of the MPO. New
jurisdictions added to the Metropolitan Planning Area now include Wardsville and Taos, while large swaths
of Callaway County were removed. The Village of Lake Mykee was also added, but in 2017 it went through
a deannexation process and merged with Holts Summit. Figure 2 demonstrates the population density
within the MPO region, showing the most densely populated parts of the planning area being found in the
older sections of Jefferson City and diffusing outward. Figure 3 shows the racial and ethnic make-up of the
CAMPO planning area.

Figure 4 shows the distribution of minority populations within the CAMPO planning area. The core, and
historically oldest, sections of Jefferson City has the highest density of minorities. There are some higher
concentrations of minorities that can be found in parts of unincorporated Cole County as well.

Low-income or poverty is determined by the federal poverty guidelines and are represented by individuals living below
185% of the poverty line, which are generated annually based on family size and composition. Low-income individuals
and families may be more likely to seek public transportation or other transportation alternatives to automobiles. Figure
5 depicts the percent of low-income populations within the CAMPO planning area.
The inner core of Jefferson City has block groups with significantly higher percentages, 25% to 65%, of persons living
below the poverty line than in the outlying area.

Figure 6 shows the distribution of the elderly population within the CAMPO planning area.
As the “Baby Boomer” generation (individuals born in the United States between mid-1946 and mid-1964) continues to
reach retirement age, municipalities across the country will be faced with the challenges of how to care for a large group
of elderly individuals. As this generation requires more healthcare needs, they will also be driving less, which will
require transportation options for them and their families. The Jefferson City inner core has significantly fewer elderly
individuals than in the surrounding area. The western portion of the planning area and much of the surrounding rural
area has higher percentages of elderly individuals.

Identification of Existing Transportation Services
Contact lists, based on the 2012 update of this plan (made from a list of tax-exempt organizations, a list
of social service agencies, internet searches, and phone book searches), were compiled totaling over 100
agencies. These agencies were identified to participate in the initial survey. The survey sent out asked about
clients served, vehicles owned (if any), and needs for both clients and the agency itself. One hundred and
nine surveys were sent via postal and several agencies were contacted by phone or email to update their
information. Twenty four agencies responded providing almost a 22% return rate.
Twelve private not-for-profit agencies, three state and federal agencies, four public agencies, and five
private for-profit agencies responded to the survey. Nearly 96% of the agencies self-identified as specifically
serving the elderly, disabled or low-income populations. Of the 24 agencies:
Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization
7
• 9 have their own vehicles, five of which have specially equipped vehicles;
• 3 agencies provide reimbursements, vouchers or gas cards to their clients and six agencies buy
third party transportation services;
• Coordinating volunteers is a part of one agencies’ transportation operations, providing contract
transportation services for other agencies is a part of 3 agencies’ transport processes,
• 5 agencies provide transportation services in other ways and;
• 3 offered none of the above.
In addition to the survey sent to human service agencies and public transportation providers, CAMPO
staff worked with a consultant conducting a system-wide assessment of JEFFTRAN, the public transit
agency serving Jefferson City. As a part of that assessment, there was a separate survey given not only to
transit riders, but to the general population of the CAMPO region. The results in their entirety may be found
in Appendix 9. Question 5 asked about the expansion of service for JEFFTRAN. Nearly 57% of respondents
favored adding Saturday service, around 34% wanted to add weekday evening service, and the remainder
wanted faster service (less wait time). Survey respondents living outside the city limits (JEFFTAN is limited
to service inside the city limits), indicated that they would use a service if it was made available to them in
their own community. Slightly over 50% of the survey respondents would consider using such a service and
nearly 50% saying they would take advantage of such a service one-to-two times a week, mostly during rush
hour (or sometimes referred to as peak hour) times.
Agencies Providing Public Transportation Services
There are three agencies that provide public transportation services within the CAMPO region. These
agencies contract and coordinate with many human services organizations to best meet the transportation
needs in their respective areas. All agree that funding constraints impede further expansion of services.
However, most organizations and agencies polled are open to coordinated efforts between agencies.
JEFFTRAN
JEFFTRAN is the City of Jefferson’s public transit provider serving the general public inside the city
limits. The system consists of a nine-bus (peak hour) fixed route transit system as well as Handiwheels, a
curb to curb service for eligible individuals with disabilities. All JEFFTRAN services run Monday through
Friday from 6:45am to 5:45pm. JEFFTRAN is a Division within the Department of Public Works, and the
City Council is its governing body. Funding to operate JEFFTRAN comes from the City of Jefferson, Federal
Transit Administration Section 5307 (Urbanized Area Formula Funding program) funding, passenger
fares/ridership fees, and Missouri Department of Transportation (MODOT).
There are six fixed routes and three “tripper” routes. These routes provide transportation for roughly
300,000 passengers per year. 73% of respondents to a 2017 JEFFTRAN needs assessment indicated they work
30 hours or more a week. Fixed route rides cost $1.00 and students can buy a 20-ride bus pass for $18.
Children 5 and under ride for free with an adult, and there is no charge for transfers. People over 60 and/or
those who have Medicare cards are eligible for a half-price fare pass.
Handiwheels regularly operates up to eight accessible cutaway vans, and provides as many as 250
riders each day with curb to curb service. Individuals with disabilities that cannot travel fixed routes are
potentially eligible for Handiwheels. Applications are available at City Hall, at JEFFTRAN’s administrative
offices, or by request via US Mail. The cost to ride Handiwheels is $2 per ride and Medicare passes are
honored. Drivers provide assistance to clients getting into and out of the vehicle as well as securing
wheelchairs. Ridership fees and contracts with Missouri Department of Social Services and Cole County
Residential Services provide some funds for Handiwheels operation. Fares and ridership fees make up 22%
Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization

of the operational budget. Capital funds come from a variety of Federal Transit Administration (FTA)
programs. Local funds are required to match these federal programs, and usually comes from the City’s
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) sales tax.
JEFFTRAN transports clients on behalf of many different human service agencies. Among these
agencies are Cole County Special Services, (CCSS), Department of Mental Health, (DMH), Department of
Social Services, (DSS), Easter Seals, Job Point, New Horizons, and Vocational Rehabilitation (VR). Agencies
like Central Missouri Community Action (CMCA), Common Ground Community Center, the Samaritan
Center, Salvation Army and Jefferson City Nursing & Rehabilitation Center serve clients who regularly use
JEFFTRAN.
In a 2016 survey of transit riders, 95% of respondents rated JEFFTRAN’s service as “good” or better.
OATS
OATS is a private not-for profit transportation provider for the general public that serves 87 counties in
the state of Missouri including within the CAMPO planning area. OATS provides transportation regardless
of age, disability, or income. Riders use OATS for essential shopping, nutrition, personal business,
recreation, employment, and medical purposes. Using four vehicles in Cole and Callaway Counties, OATS
provided 4,325 trips in FY 2016. To view OATS bus schedules go to www.oatstransit.org.
OATS is funded through FTA grants, Medicaid, Missouri Elderly and Handicapped Transportation
Assistance Program, (MEHTAP), county government, city governments, Department of Mental Health,
service contracts and rider fares. Fares are $5 round trip in city limits, $7 round trip in the county, and $9
round trip to adjacent counties.
SERVETRAN/SERVE, Inc.
SERVETRAN – SERVE, Inc. is a private not-for-profit agency that provides transportation in Callaway
County to qualified elderly, disabled, low-income, and youth Monday through Friday. The fleet of nine
vehicles includes nine wheelchair-equipped buses and two 17 passenger van equipped with mobile radios.
SERVETRAN provides door to door transportation to dialysis, medical appointments, physical therapy,
errands, beauty shops, work, and shopping. SERVETRAN also refers clients to OATS and has a Non-
Emergency Medical Transportation contract to work with taxi cab companies for out of county trips. On
average, SERVETRAN provides 3,000 one-way trips a month and 22,000 miles per month.
SERVETRAN has an annual operating budget of over $400,000 and its funding sources come from State,
Federal and local agencies. Many of the trips SERVETRAN provides are paid for by contracts, grants, and
private pay fees, donations, etc. Their office staff will work with individuals to ascertain eligibility and or
make the proper referrals to the funding sources they already have in place. SERVETRAN also receives
operating assistance funding through FTA Section 5311 (Formula Grants for Rural Areas) that is
administered by MODOT. Their basic service area includes: Fulton, a 30 mile radius into adjacent Audrain,
Boone, and Cole counties, and can travel farther for necessary medical appointments through Non-
Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT). Individuals who are not eligible for or not enrolled in any of
these funding programs are eligible for transportation services pending the assessment by office staff of
being able to pay the nominal fee. The fare for ambulatory persons residing in Fulton and traveling within
the city limits is $1.50 round trip. Fares for travel within Callaway County are $10 round trip. For
ambulatory persons residing in town and traveling to Columbia, Jefferson City, or Mexico the fee is $20
round trip and must be scheduled ahead of time.
Human Service Agencies Survey Results
According to survey responses, the following agencies provide transportation related services through
four different categories. Due to program and funding restrictions, these agencies provide services only for
their specific client base. Figure 7 shows the services survey respondents offer to their clients.

The surveys provided initial insight into the transportation needs from an agency perspective. Two
stakeholder coordination meetings were held, one on August 22, 2017 and one on September 12, to further
develop a list of identified needs. Seven people attended the first meeting representing seven agencies. The
purpose of the meeting was for agencies to meet each other and become familiar with what a coordinated
plan is, elaborate on their needs, and develop strategies to address those needs. During the discussions,

agency representatives were encouraged to share who their agency serves, how their agency provides
transportation services, and describe the transportation needs of their clients.
At the first stakeholder meeting, staff presented attendees with the assessment of transportation
needs/gaps in service, overlaps in service, and the strategies developed in 2012.
Needs/Gaps in Service
The following unmet transportation needs and gaps in service were identified in 2012 and presented to
stakeholders in August 2017 for discussion. In the discussion that followed, stakeholders stated that the all
four assessments/gaps in service exist today, along with some new additions:
1. Additional funds for capital investment and transportation service operation
2. Coordinated programs of transportation providers, employers, and human service agencies
3. Transportation service options in the evening and on the weekend for work, personal, recreational,
and program related transportation
4. Public transportation coverage outside City of Jefferson limits
5. Public transportation agencies feel that state spending towards public transportation is insufficient
Overlaps in Service
Surveys and questions indicate overlaps in the following areas:
1. Agencies may be operating multiple vehicles for similar purposes and overlapping areas.
Agency Comments and Concerns
Agency representatives expressed the transportation needs and gaps in service on behalf of their
agency and clients. The needs and gaps in services have been discussed by the representatives as being high
priorities they wish to see improvements in. The following are the areas that agencies discussed being major
needs that produce gaps in their services.
Coordination
Agency representatives have expressed a need for more coordination and communication between
transportation providers, human service agencies, and employers. Several of the human service agencies
were introduced to the Central Missouri Community Action Mobility Manager at the first stakeholder
meeting and felt that the position and the accompanying website were helpful. However, they still believe
that there is a need for further coordination between all affected agencies.
Agencies again emphasized that despite the fact that JEFFTRAN has bus routes through major sections
of Jefferson City there remains a gap in the scope of coordination in transportation, employer, and human
service programs. Businesses and industries areas have work shifts throughout the twenty-four hour period
but there are limited transportation options for those who work second and third shifts. Some agencies have
program meetings that start after 5:00 pm and they have identified a need for more transportation options
for their clients. OATS runs on a strict schedule, so while they can pick up clients at their front door, the ride
must be scheduled in advance.
Demand
There is a lack of public and private transportation options after 5pm. The highest demand for
transportation is between the hours of 8am and 5pm. Yet, agencies expressed the need for extended hours of
transportation services including on the weekend. Agency participants have communicated that their clients
have a hard time getting to and from work using the public transportation system. Usually they can get to
work but have to find an alternative way of getting home. Others say that their clients have personal and
Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan

11
program activities after 5pm. Activities such as religious services, group meetings, and visiting family tend
to happen after business hours across all demographics. Past survey results show that most agencies have a
peak in their vehicle usage between 8am and 4pm leaving vehicles not in use after 4pm. Ridesharing was
identified as being more or less comparable in cost to a taxi service, which is often too expensive for clients of
many of the human service agencies.
Funding
Additional funding is needed for expanding service operations. For example, some agencies have
outdated wheelchair lifts on their vans and would like to replace them. Agencies that serve people with
disabilities may have difficulty with insurance coverage due to high premiums. Insurance companies and
funding resources restrict usage when the contract is tied to a program instead of a need. This creates a
system in which multiple agencies are providing transportation for the same purposes and to the same
locations but only for their specific client base. This type of duplication may be more efficient for insurers
and agencies dealing with scheduling, but it is an inefficient use of fuel, equipment, labor and it increases
expenses. The restrictions are barriers to coordination in many cases and agency representatives have
identified a need for more funding resources. Public Transportation Agencies also expressed a desire to see
more funding support from the state, via the state legislature. One stakeholder claimed that the state of
Missouri ranked 44 of 50 in public transportation funding among the 50 states. The need for funding is felt
by all the agencies needing to expand their capital and operational resources.
Coverage
Several agencies expressed a need for regularly scheduled services to be available for rural residents to
get into Jefferson City for work, shopping, and more distant cities like Columbia, Kansas City, and St. Louis
for medical appointments. There is still a gap in the services available for the general public outside city
limits. SERVETRAN serves elderly, disabled, and low-income populations in the non-urban areas of the
Metropolitan Planning Organization. Cab companies, and by extension ride sharing services, are often too
expensive for regular use and OATS, according to the agency representative, is often mistaken for a service
that just provides rides for older adults.
Agency representatives agree that expansion of geographic coverage or regular scheduled trips from
rural areas to larger cities for medical treatments, personal trips, and job access would require more money
and/or dramatic coordination efforts.
Unique situations
Agency representatives have communicated many special case transportation needs for their clients.
Human service agencies serve a wide range of demographics which create many unique demands. With
medical research facilities located in larger cities, specialized treatments can be difficult to receive, especially
for those not covered by Medicaid and those who do not have flexible work schedules. The concept of
coordination is seen as a positive approach to addressing the barriers and gaps in service.
Strategies: Identification and Prioritization
This section identifies strategies for addressing the above identified needs, gaps, and overlaps in
existing services. Agency stakeholder meetings were held on August 22 and September 12, 2017 and were
designed for participants to review a draft of the CAMPO coordinated plan and make recommendations for
a final draft. Participants were given the 2012 strategies to initiate conversation and to provide a starting
point for future strategies. The following is the prioritized strategies based on participants’ response at the
public meeting held on October 24, 2017. The strategies developed were prioritized as HIGH, MEDIUM, or
LOW for the purpose of funding and implementation, according to the following scale:
Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization
12
HIGH – Funding and implementation is in high demand (could be implemented in the next 1-2 years)
MEDIUM – Funding and implementation is in high demand, but some steps may be needed before
pursuing the strategy (could be implemented in the next 2-3 years)
LOW – Funding and implementation is in high demand, but other strategies may be higher priority
(could be implemented in the next 2-5 years)

The strategies that were identified to address the needs within the CAMPO area transportation systems
are as follows:
1. Continue to support educate of the public, elected officials, local stakeholders, and service
agencies about types of service available. This could be done through the following mechanisms:
a. creation of a coordination staff position, directory, or website.
b. marketing campaign
c. brochures
d. press releases and/or public service announcements
2. Continue to support coordination among transportation providers, human service agencies, and
other local stakeholder.
3. Develop and maintain a directory of human service agencies and transportation providers,
which will include federal, state, and local government contacts, that incorporates transportation
into their activities. This list will include services, transportation capabilities, and resources.
4. Support development of a transit focus group to support growth of transit use.
5. Support development of public and private incentives to increase transit use.
6. Promote and secure funding for expansion of services and programs.
7. Support integration of new technologies that will improve transit use and accessibility.
8. Develop partnerships with public and private stakeholders to improve access and use of transit.
Prioritization of Strategies
1. TO BE ENTERED following the October 24 public meeting.
Recommendations for Continued Coordination
Coordination plays a significant role in the function and purpose of CAMPO. It is also heavily
emphasized at the federal , state, and local levels of transportation planning.
CAMPO will include continuing coordination and planning as described by the Coordinated Plan
through inclusion of coordinated human services transportation planning in the three documents that
CAMPO is required to produce; the Unified Planning Work Program, the Transportation Improvement
Program, and the Metropolitan Transportation Plan.
CAMPO will also support utilization of funding under FTA Section 5310 and through projects derived
from the strategies of this Coordinated Plan.
Public Outreach/Public Participation
A public meeting was held at the City Hall in Jefferson City to solicit input from the public. Surveys
and invitations to a stakeholder meeting on August 2 were sent to human service agencies as well as to
transportation providers. Stakeholders and survey respondents were also invited to a second stakeholder
meeting held on September 12. A public meeting was held on October 24 and advertised online and through
the paper.

Appendix 3: Definitions
Brokerage (also referred to as Transportation Brokerage) means any entity that takes trip requests and distributes the trips to
more than one service provider.
Brokerages come in all sizes, with different functions and levels of responsibility. Some brokerages are statewide
(either for-profit or state operated); others are regional or “community based” (including many transit agencies). The
regional and community-based broker is typically in charge of all aspects of the local program, including trip and
client eligibility verification, trip assignment, scheduling, billing, and monitoring.
Missouri is one of three states among those surveyed for the TCRP Synthesis 65 study that used a single statewide
broker.1
Chief Executive Officer of a State means the Governor of any of the 50 States or Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands,
Guam, American Samoa, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Mayor of the District of Columbia, or his/her designee.
Complementary Paratransit is a requirement of ADA— each transit system that operates fixed-route service must operate
paratransit within three-quarters of a mile of the fixed route. There are no restrictions on the use of this service other
than an eligibility requirement.
Elderly Individual includes, at a minimum, all persons 65 years of age or older. Grantees may use a definition that extends
eligibility for service to younger (e.g., 62 and older, 60 and over) persons.
Fixed-route service is typically found in most cities and employs buses following a designated route according to a timetable.
Passengers come to the bus stop to wait for the bus. Virtually all fixed-route buses are wheelchair accessible.
Human Service Transportation means transportation services provided by or on behalf of a human service agency to provide
access to agency services and/or to meet the basic, day-to-day mobility needs of transportation-disadvantaged
populations, especially individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people with low incomes.
Individual With a Disability means an individual who, because of illness, injury, age, congenital malfunction, or other
incapacity or temporary or permanent disability (including an individual who is a wheelchair user or has semi-
ambulatory capability), cannot use effectively, without special facilities, planning, or design, public transportation
service or a public transportation facility. 49 U.S.C. 5302(a)(5).
Medicaid - Medicaid is a large funding resource for transportation across the country. In rural areas, NEMT funding is often
greater than public transit funds and virtually dwarfs other human service transportation programs in terms of
funding and priorities. Any coordination effort that does not include Medicaid risks omitting the largest participant.
Mobility Management consists of short-range planning and management activities and projects for improving coordination
among public transportation and other transportation-service providers carried out by a recipient or subrecipient
through an agreement entered into with a person, including a government entity, under 49 U.S.C. Chapter 53 (other
than Section 5309). Mobility management does not include operating public transportation services.
NEMT stands for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, which is part of Title XIX of the Social Security Act (Medicaid). The
program itself is state run, with each state determining its approach to NEMT. (see brokerage)
New Freedom Program means the FTA formula grant program for new public transportation services and public
transportation alternatives beyond those required by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) (42
U.S.C.12101 et seq.) that assist individuals with disabilities with transportation, including transportation to and from
jobs and employment support services. 49 U.S.C. 5317.
Non-profit Organization means a corporation or association determined by the Secretary of the Treasury to be an organization
described by 26 U.S.C. 501(c) which is exempt from taxation under 26 U.S.C. 501(a) or one which has been
determined under State law to be non-profit and for which the designated State agency has received documentation
certifying the status of the non-profit organization.

Other than Urbanized (Non-urbanized) Area means any area outside of an urbanized area. The term “non-urbanized area”
includes rural areas and urban areas under 50,000 in population not included in an urbanized area.
Paratransit means comparable transportation service required by the American Disabilities Act (ADA) for individuals with
disabilities who are unable to use fixed route transportation systems.
Pre-award Authority means authority given under specific and limited circumstances to incur costs for eligible projects before
a grant is made without prejudice to possible Federal participation in the cost of the project(s). Applicants must
comply with all Federal requirements. Failure to do so will render a project ineligible for FTA financial assistance.
Program of Projects means a list of projects to be funded in a grant application submitted to FTA by a State. The Program of
Projects (POP) lists the sub-recipients and indicates whether they are private non-profit agencies or local
governmental authorities, designates the areas served (including rural areas), and identifies any tribal entities.
Public Transit means Passenger transportation services, usually local in scope that is available to any person who pays a
prescribed fare. It operates on established schedules along designated route or lines with specific stops and is
designed to move relatively large numbers of people at one time.
Public Transit Agencies means a public entity responsible for administering and managing transit activities and services.
Public transit agencies can directly operate transit service or contract out for all or part of the total transit service
provided.
Public Transit System means an organization that provides transportation services owned, operated, or subsidized by any
municipality, county, regional authority, state, or other governmental agency, including those operated or managed
by a private management firm under contract to the government agency owner.
Public Transportation means transportation by bus, rail, or other conveyance, either publicly or privately owned, which
provides to the public general or special service on a regular and continuing basis. Also known as "mass
transportation", "mass transit" and "transit."
Purchased Transportation means transportation service purchased by a public agency from a public or private provider on the
basis of a written contract.
Recipient means a State agency designated by the chief executive officer of a State to receive funds apportioned by formula to
the States under Section 5310(b)(1), or a local government authority when Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)
funds are flexed to Section 5310 to support services for individuals with disabilities.
Sub-recipient means a private non-profit organization, if the public transportation service provided is unavailable, insufficient,
or inappropriate; or a governmental authority that is approved by the State to coordinate services for elderly
individuals and individuals with disabilities or certifies that there are not any non-profit organizations readily
available in the area to provide the services.
Transportation Clearinghouse means a central agency for the collection, classification, and distribution of transportation
information. It is an informal channel for distributing information such as fares, schedules, gas prices, contact
numbers… etc.
Urbanized Area means an area encompassing a population of not less than 50,000 people that has been defined and
designated in the most recent decennial census as an “urbanized area” by the Secretary of Commerce. Small
urbanized areas as used in the context of FTA formula grant programs are urbanized areas with a population of at
least 50,000 but less than 200,000.

Appendix 4: Affected Programs
Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities (FTA Section 5310) Program
The goal: Improve mobility of the elderly and disabled individuals in urbanized, small urban and rural areas. This
program provides funds to projects that meet the special transportation needs of these populations. Such projects must be
developed through coordinated transportation plans.
The target population: Elderly individuals include, at a minimum, all persons 65 years of age or older. The second target
population is Individuals with disabilities. According to 49 U.S.C. 5302(a)(5), this means an individual who, because of
illness, injury, age, congenital malfunction, or other incapacity or temporary or permanent disability (including an
individual who is a wheelchair user or has semi-ambulatory capability), cannot use effectively, without special facilities,
planning, or design, public transportation service or a public transportation facility.
The funds: Funds for the FTA Section 5310 program are available for capital expenses as defined in Section 5302(a)(1) to
support the provision of transportation services to meet the special needs of elderly persons and persons with disabilities.
These funds are distributed using a formula based on the amount of elderly persons and persons with disabilities in each
state. For eligible capital projects, the Federal share of costs may not exceed 80% of the net cost of the activity, with a local
share of no less than 20%. Up to 10% of the apportionment may be used to support program administrative costs, and
these funds require no local match.
Eligible sub recipients are private non-profit organizations, Governmental authorities that certify to the chief executive
officer of a State that no non-profit corporations or associations are readily available in an area to provide the service, and
governmental authorities approved by the State to coordinate services for elderly individuals and individuals with
disabilities.
Eligible activities: including, but not limited to:
1. Purchase of:
a. buses
b. vans
c. radios and communication equipment
d. vehicle shelters
e. wheelchair lifts and restraints
f. vehicle rehabilitation; manufacture, or overhaul, or preventive maintenance, as defined in the National
Transit Database (NTD)
g. extended warranties which do not exceed the industry standard
h. computer hardware and software
i. initial component installation costs
j. vehicle procurement, testing, inspection, and acceptance costs
k. lease of equipment when lease is more cost effective than purchase. (State must establish criteria for
determining cost effectiveness in accordance with FTA regulations.)
2. Acquisition of transportation services under a contract, lease, or other arrangement. (Subject to eligibility
determined by MoDOT.)
3. The introduction of new technology, through innovative and improved products, into public transportation
4. Transit related intelligent transportation systems (ITS)
5. Supporting new mobility management and coordination programs among public transportation providers and
other human service agencies providing transportation. Mobility management activities may include:
a. The promotion, enhancement, and facilitation of access to transportation services
b. Support for short term management activities to plan and implement coordinated services
c. The support of State and local coordination policy bodies and councils
d. The operation of transportation brokerages to coordinate providers, funding agencies and customers
e. The provision of coordination services
f. The development and operation of one-stop transportation traveler call centers
g. Operational planning for the acquisition of intelligent transportation technologies
Application Process: Applicants must submit their requests to the MPO. Based on selection criteria, the MPO will
review and select projects for approval and forward this review along with the application to MoDOT.

Selection Criteria: Pending Mileage (max 25 pts), Number of trips per month (max 25 pts), Types of trips (max 25
pts), Hours of service (0-10 pts).
Section 5310 of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
Section 5310 funds provide capital assistance for non-profit organizations that provide service to the elderly or persons
with disabilities. Missouri receives an annual statewide allocation of federal assistance to purchase vehicles, primarily vans.
Capital assistance is funded at a maximum 80% federal and minimum 20%local share match.
MoDOT sub-allocates this allocation to outstate and to urbanized areas of Columbia, City of Jefferson, Joplin, Kansas
City, Springfield, St. Joseph, St. Louis based on their respective elderly and disabled persons populations. Each of the
urbanized areas has established their own project evaluation criteria.
Non-urbanized funds are programmed directly by the department on the basis of trips provided by the recipient
organizations with extra weight given to medical, nutrition and other necessary trips. Replacement vehicles are given a
priority over expansion vehicles.
Financial capability to provide the local match and operate the vehicles must be demonstrated.

Appendix 5: Federal Funding Programs Available from MODOT
Missouri Elderly and Handicapped Transportation Assistance Program
The Missouri Elderly and Handicapped Transportation Assistance Program (MEHTAP) provides state funds to
approximately 200 non-profit organizations statewide who offer transportation services to the elderly and/or disabled at below-
cost rates. State general revenue funds are divided among grantees taking into account ridership, costs, and alternative services
available (208.250 RSMo). Trips weighted by type (medical, essential services, recreation) determine total ridership. Costs are
estimated by total vehicle miles operated by each recipient. Weighted trips and vehicle miles are given equal weights in
computing a preliminary formula division of funds.
The preliminary formula division is adjusted for alternative services available, local resources, and special client needs.
Some discretion is exercised to adjust for inequities stemming from variances between past actual and projected future usage.
Each year, project funding is contingent upon receipt of applications from eligible providers and an appropriation from the
state legislature. Federal, local and private matching funds of over $19,000,000 do not flow through this department.
Section 5303 of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
The department administers Federal Transit Administration Section 5303 planning grants for transit planning activities of
the seven metropolitan planning areas of East-West Gateway Coordinating Council (St. Louis area), Mid-America Regional
Council (Kansas City area), and the cities of Joplin, St. Joseph, Springfield, Columbia and Jefferson City.
Funds are distributed to Metropolitan Planning Organizations on the basis of population from 2000 urbanized area Census
data within the State of Missouri.
Section 5307 of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
Funds come to Missouri on the basis of a national formula that provides capital assistance to transit systems in urban areas
over 200,000 population and both capital assistance and operating assistance to transit systems in small urbanized areas with
populations between 50,000 – 200,000. The department allocates these federal funds on behalf of the Governor based on
amounts published in the Federal Register to the small urbanized areas of Columbia, Joplin, Jefferson City and St. Joseph on the
basis of the same formula. The Federal Transit Administration allocates funds directly to the St. Louis, Kansas City and
Springfield urbanized areas.
This Federal assistance does not flow through MoDOT. Federal regulations on the use of capital funds for maintenance
have been relaxed. Some traditional operating expenses such as major preventative maintenance are now eligible for capital
funding.
Additionally, State transit assistance funds to urbanized area transit providers are a part of the annual appropriation of
these general revenue funds with 3% held in Governor’s reserve. Mid-year reductions of general revenue based funds may
occur depending upon the actual receipt of revenue s by the state. MoDOT does not handle locally derived matching funds.
Section 5309 of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
Section 5309 is a national discretionary capital grant program funded from the Mass Transit Account of the Highway Trust
Fund. It restricts funds to capital assistance for general public transportation systems and/or systems which provide
community-wide assistance to all persons with disabilities. These funds are applicable statewide. Eligible recipients of Section
5309 assistance are public entities and not- for-profit organizations who provide general public transit services. Section 5309
assistance has become the major source of funding transit capital projects throughout the state. Capital purchases are funded at
a maximum 80%federal share and a minimum 20% local share.
Since 1993, (with the exception of 2002) Missouri’s Congressional Delegation has been able to “earmark” some portion of
Missouri’s annual federal appropriation of Section 5309 funds to the State of Missouri. MoDOT administers funding from the
statewide appropriation. Section 5309 funds administered by MoDOT typically assist grantees that usually do not receive these
funds directly, such as non-urban transit systems and not- for-profit transit providers.
Coordinated Public Transit Human Services Transportation Plan
Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization
26
First priority of MoDOT administered Section 5309 funds is given to vehicle purchases, second to vehicle maintenance
equipment and facilities and third to auxiliary equipment.
Within the vehicle category, first priority is given to replacement vehicles that have met federal standards for useful life.
Vehicles to expand service are the second priority.
Availability of local matching funds and sufficient funds to operate vehicles over their useful life must be demonstrated
prior to award.
Section 5311 of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
Section 5311 provides capital, operating and planning assistance to public transportation systems in non-urbanized areas.
A non-urbanized area is an area outside a city of 50,000 or more inhabitants and its densely settled fringe areas. Section 5311
projects include planning and technical studies, system design, capital acquisition, and assistance in defraying operating losses.
Eligible recipients of Section 5311 assistance include public bodies, private not- for-profit corporations and operators of
service that provide general public transportation services.
Private for-profit providers of service are eligible through purchase of service agreements with a local public body for the
provision of public transportation services.
Planning, training and related technical studies are currently funded entirely with federal funds. Capital projects are
funded 80% federal and 20%local match. Operating assistance projects may receive up to 50% of their net loss from the federal
grant.
MoDOT administers these Sec. 5311 federal funds for eligible transit program costs.
Additionally, State transit assistance funds to non-urbanized area transit providers are annually appropriated with 3% held
in Governor’s reserve. Mid-year reductions of general revenue based funds may occur depending upon the actual receipt of
revenues by the state. Changes in individual contract amounts up to 10% may be made as circumstances warrant. MoDOT does
not handle local matching funds.
Section 5311 (b) of Chapter 53, Title 49, U.S.C. Federal Transit Administration
The department administers the Federal Transit Administration Section 5311 (b) Rural Transit Assistance Program for the
development and implementation of training, technical assistance and other support services for use by local transit providers in
nonurbanized areas.
FTA allocates RTAP funds to each state based on an administrative formula. FTA first allocates $65,000 to each state and
