Transportation

Original Airdate: July 5, 2005
Being able to get around is something most of us take for granted. Our jobs and other activities depend on it. But for some seniors, traveling is more of a challenge than a right. Many communities in New Hampshire don't have public transportation and it's leaving some people feeling stranded. As part of our ongoing series Seeing Seniors, Phil Vaughn brings us a story from Sullivan County where he met a woman on a mission to get a ride. Also in this program, we'll hear from regional policymakers on options for the future of transportation services. Guests include Christine McMahon, the COO of Easter Seals, New Hampshire; Kit Morgan, Administrator of the Bureau of Rail and Transit at the New Hampshire Department of Transportation and Van Chesnut, the Chair of the New Hampshire Transit Association and Executive Director of Advance Transit of Lebanon.
