We are thrilled to partner with COTA on this important initiative and help shape the future of transportation across the region.
COTA's Board of Trustees unanimously approves ballot measure to expand and modernize public transit and provide hundreds of miles of sidewalks, bikeways and pathways throughout more than 40 communities in Central Ohio.

Today, the COTA board took a historic step: Initiating a ballot measure to enact the #LinkUS mass transit plan. This November, voters will decide on more frequent and reliable COTA service, 50+ miles of rapid transit lines, and 500+ miles of sidewalks, bike lanes, and trails. Council is all in and ready for this dialogue with our residents about pivoting away from the car-centric sprawl of our past and towards a new sustainable future for Central Ohio.
