Building Community Around Aging

Emma Strange, MORPC Mobility Coordinator, discusses public transportation options for older adults and how the LinkUs mobility initiative will expand transportation options and improve accessibility.

Community Conversations: Building Community Around Aging is an ongoing series that takes a look at pressing issues going on around central Ohio and how they relate to older adults. From housing and medical costs to gardening and healthy eating, we'll explore new topics in each program with featured speakers in a relaxed social setting. Coffee and light refreshments will be available at each program.

This month's topic: Transportation & Mobility Around Columbus

Representatives from Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) will discuss public transportation options for getting around Columbus, share information and resources on the LinkUS Columbus program aimed at expanding mobility options, and provide assessments on which routes and transportation options will work best for you. This is part 1 of our transportation discussion. Part 2 will be held on Thursday, March 20 from 1-2:30 PM and will cover Active Transportation: Walk, Bike, and Trails with MORPC, focusing on mobility and walkable communities around central Ohio.
