Metro Seeking Public Feedback on Transformation Plan

January 23, 2023 @ 8:00 am - February 14, 2023 @ 5:00 pm

Metro is inviting customers to provide feedback on the transit agency’s draft multi-year strategic transformation plan, #YourMetro, The Way Forward. The draft plan is an opportunity for Metro to gather input and comments from customers on priorities that are important to the region.

During the public comment period, customers and stakeholders can express their viewpoints on the strategic plan’s goals and objectives and learn more about Metro’s initiatives. #YourMetro, The Way Forward was developed by Metro’s Board of Directors and management through direct input from Metro customers, staff, and regional stakeholders through various public engagement forums.
The plan focuses on activating Metro’s four goals:
  • Service excellence: Deliver safe, reliable, convenient, accessible, equitable, and enjoyable services for all customers
  • Talented teams: Attract, develop, and retain top talent where individuals feel valued, supported, and proud of their contributions
  • Regional opportunity and partnership: Design transit service to serve more people and equitably connect a growing region
  • Sustainability: Manage resources responsibly to achieve a sustainable operating, capital, and environmental model
Metro encourages customers to participate in the public process by providing input online or participating in the public hearing on Thursday, February 9. Click here to read the proposed plan.
