This week, legislation that could support commuters, especially those who have limited ways to get around, moved closer to the House and Senate floor.
I am proud to have voted for Senate Bill 9, which would provide funding for microtransit services across the state, including Milford Micro. Now is the time to act because current funding for the pilot program is slated to run out on June 30.
The Transportation Committee advanced the measure with a 32-4 vote. The bill next moves to the Senate floor if it gets called before the end of session.

Service hours:

Microtransit services like this help residents who may not have access to a car and rely on public transportation to reach work, medical appointments, grocery stores, and other essential destinations.
I will continue to monitor this legislation and provide updates as it moves through the legislative process.
