Details: In preparation for implementing countywide transit improvements, Washtenaw County has been divided into eight transit districts represented by 15 delegates making up what is referred to as the Unincorporated Act 196 (U-196) board of directors.
Each of the eight districts represented on the U-196 board has its own advisory committee. Each committee brings together transit service providers, senior and human service representatives, the business community and other interested citizens to provide advice on the development and implementation of transit improvements in their own district. The first meeting will serve as a community forum for residents and interested parties to share their input on what improvements they would like to see in their districts in the near future.
