| 摘要： | Transportation plays a critical role in providing access to employment, health care, education, community services, and other activities necessary for daily life. For people who cannot drive or afford an automobile, access to transportation services is one of the major barriers to essential services and everyday activities in their community. Transportation challenges can be even greater for people with disabilities, older adults, and people with limited incomes. The importance of transportation is underscored by the myriad of programs that have been created in conjunction with health and human services programs and by the significant federal investment in accessible public transportation systems throughout the nation. Ironically, the creation of so many programs had unintended consequences for the people they were intended to help. These challenges were documented in a congressional hearing and a report issued by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) citing the need to breakdown federal barriers to the local coordination of federally funded transportation services. |
