KYOVA Interstate Planning Commission FY 2013 TMA Coordinated Public Transit Human Service Transportation Plan Amendment #4 The public is hereby notified that the KYOVA FY 2013 TMA Coordinated Public Transit Human Services Transportation Plan for the Huntington, WV-KY-OH Urbanized Area is being amended by the KYOVA Interstate Planning Commission in accordance with the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act and in cooperation with the West Virginia Department of Transportation, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Ohio Department of Transportation, Federal Highway (FHWA), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Tri-State Transit Authority (TTA), Ashland Bus System (ABS) and Lawrence County Transit (LCT). The FY 2013 Coordinated Public Transit Human Services Transportation Plan for the Huntington, WV-KY-OH Urbanized Area (Cabell and Wayne counties in West Virginia, Boyd and Greenup counties in Kentucky and Lawrence County, Ohio) enables coordination of transportation resources especially for seniors, persons with disabilities and persons from low-income backgrounds.
