5. Stakeholder Participation Approach  Leverage CCWIB’s extensive outreach & networks  Leverage NJ’s UWR Coordinated Planning Process  State Agency Support – NJCAM Governor’s Executive Order  Talk to riders on the street & conduct focus groups

6. Current Conditions  Suppressed demand  Limited service area and hours  Complex customer communications  Limited coordination among area providers  Limited integration of human service transportation with traditional public transportation

7. Needs Mapping Requirements to Design System Requirements User needs Expectations Goals Objectives System operation Complete Verifiable Validated Review/approval Concept of OpsHigh-level Design Develop/evaluate alternatives Identify connections Consider standards Preliminary design review What How

8. Six System Elements  The first element (Faith-Based Collaborative) will provide an expanded capacity to serve unmet trip demand and augment the existing system  Next five elements relate to the customer needs previously identified  Use technology enhancements to address these needs

9. 1. Faith-Based Collaborative  Enable faith-based organizations to provide community transportation  Enable faith-based organizations to participate in and benefit from TMCC communication services  Enable cost efficiency through combined administration and purchasing

10. 2. One-Call Transportation Communications Center  Simplified access to transportation information for riders – via phone and web  Will serve as a point for bringing new trip demand to existing providers  Will share routing and scheduling software with key Camden County providers to facilitate trip sharing  Existing providers will retain their customer intake, reservations and scheduling

11. 3. Coordination of Provider Trip Functions  Help providers to use their vehicle trips more efficiently  Implement a shared software so that key providers can share customer trip and vehicle run information (Automated Routing/Scheduling)  Enable provider dispatchers to see where all key provider vehicles are located in real time (GPS/AVL)  Provide paperless trip reporting from vehicles and improved detail of data (MDC)

12. 4. Seamless Fare and Billing System  Enable unit trip costs for different providers to be billed to funding agencies (automated billing system)  Enable customers to pay on vehicle electronically (smart card)  Enable providers to generate reports in order to bill back to customers and funding agencies (billing reporting system) Courtesy Cross County Connection TMA
