Fayette County adopts 2026–2030 Regional Mobility Plan for ODOT HSTC Region 6
Summary
The Fayette County Board of Commissioners unanimously adopted the 2026–2030 Regional Mobility Plan on June 15, 2026, making it the coordinated public transit‑human services transportation plan for ODOT HSTC Region 6 and satisfying FTA Section 5310 funding requirements for the nine‑county area.
The Board of Fayette County Commissioners voted unanimously June 15 to adopt the 2026–2030 Regional Mobility Plan as the coordinated public transit‑human services transportation plan for Ohio Department of Transportation Human Services Transportation Coordination (HSTC) Region 6.
"That the 2026-2030 Regional Mobility Plan be adopted as the official coordinated public transit-human services transportation plan for ODOT HSTC Region 6," the clerk read as the resolution was approved by roll call.
The resolution notes the federal Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) requirement for a coordinated plan to access Enhanced Mobility of Older Adults and People with Disabilities funding and designates the Mid‑Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) as the recipient to administer FTA Section 5310 funds for the Columbus urbanized area. The plan covers nine counties in the region—Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin, Fayette, Licking, Logan, Madison, Pickaway and Union—and lists strategies to expand services, improve access to transit and raise awareness of available programs.
Commissioners said the plan aligns local eligibility for federal transit funding with regional efforts. The motion to adopt was made by Commissioner Donald L. Fleak, seconded by Commissioner Tony Anderson, and passed on a unanimous roll call.
MORPC will continue to maintain its Program Management Plan and assist subrecipients, the resolution states; the board recommended eligible applicants incorporate the plan's strategies into local planning and program efforts to improve transportation options.
