The Transportation Advocacy Group (TAG Team) works to make public transit better for everyone. The group monitors public transit services across DNSWM’s 8-county service area to check for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and identify ways to improve transit for all.

We speak up about barriers, address transportation concerns, and work to make public transit better. You don’t have to be an advocate to join! If you have questions or concerns about public transit, you’re welcome to participate, too.
