Community Outreach and Public Engagement

VTA's COPE team group picture

The VTA's Community Outreach and Public Engagement (COPE) team is committed to sharing important information about projects and programs with residents, businesses, and stakeholders. The COPE team actively seeks feedback and encourages participation in transportation initiatives that impact local neighborhoods and residents' lives.

VTA recognizes that stakeholders have essential insights into their community's history, culture, and vision, which are critical for developing effective mobility solutions. Engaging with the community is crucial for creating projects that result in improved outcomes and foster a sense of community ownership.

COPE Values:

  • Inform and engage with our communities, including providing information in their preferred languages.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
  • Utilize the best and most innovative communication and outreach practices.
