Local Transportation Study
The Benzie County Human Services Collaborating Body, funded through a grant from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), conducted a study of transportation options for Benzie County. The continuing growth of the county and the levels of transportation service provided by various social service agencies warranted a review of opportunities to coordinate, consolidate, and provide transportation to agency clients and potentially people in the county more cost effectively. The Corradino Group, a national transportation consultant, conducted the study.
