Coordinated Human Service Plan
Boulder County is creating its very first Coordinated Public Transit - Human Services Transportation Plan – Mobility and Access for All Ages and Abilities Plan - and we want to hear from you! The plan focuses on the transportation needs of seniors, people with disabilities, low-income individuals, and youth. The plan will also address federal requirements per the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Section 5310 funding process for urbanized and rural areas.

COVID-19 Vaccine Clinics
Boulder County is continuing to hold vaccination clinics throughout the County to administer the COvid-19 Vaccines.

ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan
After receiving dozens of community comments on accessibility challenges present in the city's transportation infrastructure (sidewalks, curb ramps, multi-use paths, pedestrian crossings and access to transit stops), staff has created a draft ADA Self-Evaluation Plan.
The plan provides background on applicable ADA-related policies/programs, an overview of key themes from community engagement and major gaps and challenges, with an initial dive into strategies to address these. This effort helps frame future accessibility upgrades to be prioritized in the forthcoming ADA Transition Plan (to be developed later in 2021).
