CONNECT Connectoaklandis aproposed u., OAKLAND 'mill community ConnectOakland would be administered by Oakland County. It would extend transit options across the county. Proceeds from the measure would go to existing transit providers. The funding would also enable new access to healthcare, education, employment, and shopping destinations beyond the reach of current transit service. ConnectOakland would support a variety of community -oriented transit services, including: Paratransit Microtransit Reservation -based service for essential trips, such as medical appointments and grocery shopping. Paratransit promotes independence for seniors and persons with disabilities. Goals of ConnectOakland: Small vehicles providing flexible, on -demand service open to all. Requested through a mobile app or a phone call, microtransit links lower -density suburban areas into the full transit system. Regularly scheduled service on major corridors connecting key locations. Fixed -route is fast and efficient for longer trips; it's practical in denser areas with sidewalks and mixed land uses. Replace three existing millages with one funding measure, Build on the success of local transit providers. Fill the holes and eliminate the gaps in transit access. Establish a basic level of transit service throughout Oakland County. Leverage new technologies for modern, efficient transit. Focus on access to everyday destinations and vital resources. Increase awareness of transit options for residents and businesses.
