SIGN THE PETITION: IT’S TIME TO INVEST IN PUBLIC TRANSIT

For too long, Vermont's transit system has been operating without the adequate and sustainable dedicated funding it needs to meet the needs of commuters, visitors, and local residents - threatening their ability to access employment, healthcare, and other essential services.

We must align the state's transportation dollars with the needs of Vermonters. Out of the $870 million transportation budget, only about 6% is invested in public transit. Due to increasing costs and changes in transportation funding, Vermonters are already experiencing cuts to transit services.

AARP Vermont is proud to support the Transportation for Vermonters (T4VT) petition advocating for a more robust and sustainable public transit system in our state. This initiative aligns with our commitment to enhancing the quality of life for older adults and all Vermonters by promoting accessible, affordable, and environmentally friendly transportation options.

We urge Vermont leaders to transition Vermont's Transportation Fund to better reflect Vermonters' needs and commit to stabilizing public transit in the near term by identifying dedicated funding for a robust transit system in Vermont.
