Johnson County Transit has kicked-off its Transit Strategic Plan process. It will be a roadmap for the future focused on clearly articulating JCT’s vision, strategic direction and the methods necessary to achieve these goals.

The process will include extensive public outreach, including input from Johnson County’s Board of County Commissioners, users of the system, the Johnson County Transportation Council and the broader Johnson County community in this planning effort. Engagement will focus on effectively giving the community a voice through collaborative and inclusive discussions.

Strategic Plan Goals

• Determine the level and types of service that will serve the most residents and workers most effectively within the budgetary resources available at present;
• Position JCT for stable operations, partnerships and growth in the long term;
• Make JCT a recognizable asset for the county’s economic growth and diversification and quality of life;
• Ensure mobility support for vulnerable populations and the workforce; and
• Recommend enhancements in organizational structure, internal expertise, and standard operating procedures to ensure JCT’s integrity, efficiency, and effectiveness at meeting ongoing operational challenges, exceeding customer expectations and carrying out the Board’s direction.

Public Engagement Opportunities

Pop-up Facilitations

To gather public input, we will meet people where they are at interactive pop-up facilitations during already scheduled community events. Dates and times of public engagement opportunities will be posted here once available.

Your voice matters, so keep an eye out!

Community Survey

A community-wide statistically valid survey will be conducted that will capture input from people from across Johnson County including non-riders, past riders and current riders. The goal of this survey is to understand attitudes and gauge support for public transit in the broader community, identify what’s working well and determine priorities and preferences.

When will the plan be complete?

The Johnson County Transit Strategic Plan is scheduled to finalize the plan for adoption in early 2025.
