The 69th Montana Legislature's
Transportation Interim Committee (TIC) is conducting an interim study on ways to improve passenger transportation service and public transit, pursuant to
Senate Joint Resolution 19 (2025).
The TIC wants a broad-based perspective on how Montanans and their families utilize various forms of public transportation, both within local communities and for travel across the state.
For the purposes of this survey, public transportation modalities may include:
bus,
rideshare (Uber/Lyft/etc.),
taxi,
bike or scooter sharing (available for hourly rental),
rail/train,
air/flights,
water/ferry,
paratransit (specialized public transportation service for individuals with disabilities or mobility limitations), and
demand-response or dial-a-ride.
The information gathered from this survey will play a vital role in helping the TIC assess current transit services and identify areas of improvement. By analyzing community feedback, the committee can
pinpoint gaps in service,
evaluate demand for new or expanded transportation options, and
prioritize enhancements to existing systems.
Your input will directly inform strategic planning and will ensure that future public transportation initiatives align with the needs of the communities we serve.We greatly appreciate your time filling out this survey (approx. 10 minutes).
