Provides direction for the implementation and coordination of public and private transportation services in Fort Dodge, Iowa. The TDP evaluates services currently available, assesses the transportation needs of the city, builds upon previous plans, provides recommendations for future actions. Policy makers benefit by having several developmental alternatives presented and by being able to follow the progress of the transit system with the preparation of each year's transit development plan. The document also projects needs and likely developmental directions for a five-year period, resulting in greater understanding of the future of the transit program.
