Do you believe that transportation infrastructure in your community is about far more than just getting from Point A to Point B? Transportation is critical to connected neighborhoods, economic opportunities, and long-term community health. That’s why Main Street America was selected by the US Department of Transportation to implement the Thriving Communities Program, working closely with 20 rural and tribal communities in 21 states.
In this webinar, we will reflect on the lessons learned from the program and share practical guidance and tools to build community engagement, foster partnerships, identify and develop projects, and secure infrastructure funding. Join us to learn how you can use transportation infrastructure as a tool for community transformation.
This webinar will be recorded. Registration is required.
