Key West Transit Development Plan FY2025-2034

CHAPTER 10: PLAN IMPLEMENTATION & COORDINATION 10.0 TDP Coordination & Implementation 10.1 Post-Adoption Outreach The completion and adoption of the FY 2025-34 TDP provides the City of Key West with an excellent opportunity to incorporate TDP findings and needs into future public involvement, outreach, and marketing efforts. It is recommended that transit agencies develop and maintain a marketing program to raise awareness of existing services and potential improvements.

This section addresses the important additional steps that must be taken to effectively coordinate and implement the recommendations from this TDP. This includes integrating the plan with existing local, state, and regional plans and associated partners. Phased improvements necessitate a strategic examination of the routes to ensure synchronization and efficiency. The inaugural phase of these enhancements will prioritize routes that directly service the main hub, with a particular focus on those boasting the highest ridership figures. This methodical approach ensures that the most utilized routes receive timely upgrades, benefiting the largest number of KWT patrons.

Efforts to reach out to senior, low-income, and other transit-dependent populations offer immediate benefits to these communities. Additionally, they enable staff to gauge and update the priorities of the TDP annually. Similarly, post-adoption outreach to non-traditional transit markets helps the city assess interest in new services and other needs. This feedback allows for adjustments to service and capital priorities based on public and community input. Such changes are often common and can be reflected in the TDP Annual Progress Reports following the passage of this major TDP effort.
