Iowa considers pilot programs to consolidate public transit
A legislative proposal would authorize two pilot areas to study consolidating public and private transportation in Iowa. The effort aims to reduce duplicative routes and share maintenance while balancing school bus operations and services for the elderly and handicapped. Officials expect potential pilots by next school year if approved.
