The founding of our organization on April 3, 2013 was and
continues to be a catalyst for positive social and economic change within the
Columbia-Midlands Area. While working with the Comet Transit Service, area
municipalities and businesses over the past year, we have accomplished several
goals, including some which we had not foreseen as achieving within a time
period that they were achieved. The board of the Midlands Transit Riders Association would like to share these
accomplishments with the press and
public, as well as various plans and goals to improve on these improvements,
and more effectively the public transit system an important part of economic
development in the Midlands area.
The Midlands Transit Center continues to make it our mission.
To make sure that all
citizens in the Columbia-Midlands Area to see the transit system as a tool for
economic development that helps to decrease unemployment and homelessness, so
that prospective businesses and residents will want to become part of, and add
to the growth of the Metropolitan Columbia Area.

invited to this event, including those who we hope to acknowledge for their
efforts in advancing the transit system, over the past year.
