MINORITY TRANSPORTATION NEEDS ASSESSMENT PROJECT

The Minority Transportation Needs Assessment Project (MTNAP) has as its goals the identification of minority residential locations and the assessment of the unique transportation needs (e.g. needs related to language barriers, low automobile ownership and inadequate transportation services) of ethnic minority groups in the Nine County Bay Region. The MTNAP project addresses four basic questions: (1) What are the major minority populations and special interest groups in the S.F. Bay Region; (2) Where are the minority population groups, organizations and agencies located; (3) What are the unique transportation needs of these minority groups; and (4) How can these minority transportation needs be considered more extensively in the planning process.
