Specifications include, but are not limited to: Task 1: Project kickoff meeting A. Attend kickoff meeting with project steering committee to review project objective, timeframe, and scope of work. Task 2: Evaluate Existing Conditions/Services A. Based on other existing reports and data, complete a transportation demand assessment to determine gaps in current services. In performing this basic assessment, we expect that the consultant will utilize existing information. It is our hope that all of the available background information will enable this task to be completed fairly quickly and easily. This existing information includes: 1) Okemo and The MOOver shuttles, route, scheduling, and ridership data. 2) The Current Route Evaluation and Planning Project (2016) 3) Ludlow Municipal Plan 4) VTrans Traffic Data Task 3: Conduct outreach to the community and local businesses A. The consultant will coordinate with MARC staff and project steering committee to conduct outreach to the community and local businesses to clarify the needs expressed by the community during the recent Municipal Plan update process. Outreach will include gathering feedback on and assessing prior attempts to provide shuttle service. Outreach may take the form of surveys, interviews, or other efforts. The consultant can anticipate relying on MARC staff to provide labor to support the outreach effort, the cost of which will not be paid for through this MTI grant
