  • Transit/Paratransit Planning
    Public Transit Public transportation is vital to the region’s transportation system, offering affordable transportation for those unable to use or do not have access to private transportation. It provides an important service for seniors, youth, the economically disadvantaged, and the disabled populations in our community. Public transportation also provides an economical and environmentally friendlier alternative to the personal vehicle. KYOVA coordinates with the three (3) public transit operators in our region: Tri-State Transit Authority of West Virginia, the Ashland Bus System (ABS) of Kentucky, and the Lawrence County Transit of Ohio to review trends and discuss future opportunities for public transit. Two studies are underway, one in Boyd and Greenup counties, Kentucky and the other for Cabell and Wayne counties, West Virginia that will evaluate the current transit systems and recommend best steps in moving forward to meet the needs of users in a cost effective manner. Additionally, the studies hope to take a more comprehensive and long-range look at future capabilities and technologies that optimize and expand transit service. Feasible, cost-effective means to increase transit service and ridership that are identified may then be prioritized and programmed for funding through the MPO Planning Process and Transportation Improvement Program. Additionally, KYOVA has worked closely with TTA, ABS and LCT to identify, fund and help address ADA issues. The information is a brief summary of the transit agencies that operate in the Huntington, WV-KY-OH TMA. Tri-State Transit Authority (TTA) - TTA is the Tri-State Transit Authority, which provides bus service in the Huntington, West Virginia and Ironton, Ohio urban area.
