OVERVIEW

Communities In Motion is the public transportation industry's special day to educate, promote and celebrate the benefits of public transportation and to showcase how transit benefits communities by providing personal opportunity to individuals.

On October 5, 2006, the transit community will join together to celebrate Communities In Motion. Many transit agencies around the country will be participating in a number of Communities In Motion activities that highlight the importance of public transportation in the community. This year the theme is Public Transportation: The Fabric That Connects.

Public Transportation: The Fabric that Connects

Furthering the notion that public transportation helps form the intricate fabric of communities many transit agencies around the country will promote the literal connection between public transit as a vital service to the fabric of your community by collecting new or gently used blankets and donating them to a local charity.

By participating in Communities In Motion, you will help build support for public transportation which provides people from all walks of life access to opportunities to accomplish what is important to them, making the community stronger and more vibrant.
