Municipal Outreach Program

MISSION 

Establish and maintain relations with municipal officials and stakeholders to promote community-oriented development in Southwestern Pennsylvania’s transportation infrastructure. 

VISION 

Empowering Mobilify’s partners to develop and sustain community-oriented transportation development. 

GOALS 

  • Understand municipalities’ current and future transportation initiatives

  • Support municipalities in executing their transportation goals. 

  • Connect municipalities to advance mutually beneficial transportation goals. 

FRAMEWORK 

Mobilify’s Outreach Program strategy is trifold and will address the following questions— 

Who is Mobilify? 

The first step is to advertise Mobilify’s resources, expertise, and assistance capabilities to municipalities. With deliverables such as presentations and pre-existing programs, Mobilify will explain how its services can greatly benefit municipalities in achieving its transportation goals. 

What are your municipality’s transit infrastructure improvement goals? 

Next, Mobilify will seek to understand the state of the municipality’s transportation infrastructure initiatives. Mobilify may attend council meetings and schedule subsequent discussions to understand the community’s needs regarding transit infrastructure, learn about the measures the municipality has taken thus far, and understand plans/projects pertinent to transportation infrastructure. 

How can Mobilify support your vision? 

Finally, Mobilify will make its resources available to the municipality and encourage municipal leaders to include Mobilify in its efforts towards transit infrastructure improvement.
