Johnson County Transit has kicked-off its Transit Strategic Plan process. It will be a roadmap for the future focused on clearly articulating JCT’s vision, strategic direction and the methods necessary to achieve these goals.

The process will include extensive public outreach, including input from Johnson County’s Board of County Commissioners, users of the system, the Johnson County Transportation Council and the broader Johnson County community in this planning effort. Engagement will focus on effectively giving the community a voice through collaborative and inclusive discussions.

Strategic Plan Goals

• Determine the level and types of service that will serve the most residents and workers most effectively within the budgetary resources available at present;
• Position JCT for stable operations, partnerships and growth in the long term;
• Make JCT a recognizable asset for the county’s economic growth and diversification and quality of life;
• Ensure mobility support for vulnerable populations and the workforce; and
• Recommend enhancements in organizational structure, internal expertise, and standard operating procedures to ensure JCT’s integrity, efficiency, and effectiveness at meeting ongoing operational challenges, exceeding customer expectations and carrying out the Board’s direction.

Public Engagement Opportunities

Pop-up Facilitations

To gather public input, we will meet people where they are at interactive pop-up facilitations during already scheduled community events. Dates and times of public engagement opportunities will be posted here once available.

Join us under the clock tower at the Overland Park Farmers Market on Saturday, October 5th, from 10 a.m. to noon for a special pop-up event! This is part of our strategic plan, and we’re gathering input to help shape the future of public transit in Johnson County. Stop by to learn more, share your feedback and be a part of the conversation on improving local transit.

Your voice matters, so keep an eye out!

Community Survey

We’re conducting a community-wide, statistically valid survey to gather feedback from Johnson County residents—whether you’re a current, past, or non-rider. Your input will help us understand community attitudes, gauge support for public transit, and identify key priorities and areas for improvement.

Please take the survey today and help shape the future of transit in our region. The survey will close on Oct. 23.
