The Federal Transit Administration is making billions in “Low-No” funding available to transit agencies. Agencies, operators, and municipalities across the United States can apply. For many agencies, Low-No grants have already kick-started their transition. The funding is ideal for agencies that have publicly committed to a net-zero future but need help with the costs. Learn about creating a transition plan and successfully applying for this funding source. *The Future of Fully Integrating Public Transit Networks 11:15 a.m.-12 p.m. | Tavern Ballroom Presented by: Deanna Archey, Montgomery County; Kwaku Agyemang- From fixed route buses and rail to microtransit zones featuring dynamic shuttles, each mode of transit has its place in a mobility landscape. But the biggest challenge today Duah, City of Annapolis; Sarah Schechter, Via Transportation

is how to weave this patchwork of transportation options into one cohesive, integrated network that both serves the right mix of riders and is easy for passengers to understand. It all starts with a smarter strategy: How do you determine where each mode of transit is best suited? And most importantly, how can you confidently plan for each to complement (not compete with) each other? Join transit leaders from Annapolis GO in the City of Annapolis and RideOn in Montgomery County as they detail their unique approaches to new and improved integrated mobility networks.
