Transportation for America is made up of a growing and diverse coalition from diverse interests: Real estate, housing, environmental, public health, urban planning, transportation and equitable development. The coalition is focused on creating a national transportation program that will take America into the 21st century by modernizing our infrastructure and building healthy communities where all people can live, work and play.
PVACR benefits from the extensive educational resources on transportation that the coalition provides to partners and the public. We also use T4America's online action tools to help members easily send policymakers timely messages of support on pressing transportation issues.
