| Description: | The purpose of SCCRTC is to set priorities for major capital improvements to the community's transportation infrastructure, including highways, major roads, rail and alternative transportation facilities. Pursue and allocate local, state and federal funding for all elements of the community's transportation system. Adopt policies to improve mobility, access and air quality. Plan for future projects and programs to improve the regional transportation system while improving the region's quality of life. Inform the public about the broad range of local transportation issues, and an Interagency Technical Advisory Committee for input from local jurisdictions and partner agencies, including the need to better manage our existing transportation system. Encourage the use of alternative transportation modes, such as carpooling, using transit, bicycling and walking. www.commutesolutions.org ELIGIBILITY: The 12-member Board includes all five county supervisors, one representative from each of the four cities, and three representatives from the Santa Cruz Metropolitan Transit District. One Caltrans representative is an ex-officio member of the board. |
