Ketchikan, Alaska - Southeast Alaska Independent Living (SAIL), announced recently that the planning team of Kent Miller, Susan Dickinson and Dennis Kuklok have been hired to update the 2006 Public Transit-Human Services Community Coordination Plan. The plan update is funded by a State of Alaska Department of Transportation grant.

The update is being prepared to assist public transportation users and service providers in setting the course for improvements to public transportation in Ketchikan. Once developed, the plan will serve as a template for future transit and transportation projects, including bike and pedestrian improvements. The planning team invites the citizens of Ketchikan and nearby communities to an open house meeting to gather their input for inclusion in the plan .

A drop in public information meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 2nd from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Plaza Mall, Suite 207 (upstairs, above the Tongass Avenue entrance). The public is invited to come and learn about the project and share their ideas on future transportation projects in Ketchikan.

Refreshments will be provided during this "roll up your sleeves" forum to map the future for people who use Ketchikan's many modes of transportation. Anyone needing more information or a ride to the meeting can call Kent Miller at 225-3992 or email Susan Dickinson at transit-plan-update@hotmail.com.
