CBTP Steering Committee

The Bay Fair CBTP Steering Committee brings together a diverse group of community voices to help guide the planning process. The Steering Committee ensures the CBTP reflects the perspectives and experiences of those who live and work in the area.

The Steering Committee will meet throughout the planning process to:

  • Provide local insights on transportation needs, access barriers & challenges.​

  • Ensure equitable representation of a variety of stakeholders.​

  • Help refine outreach strategies to reach priority populations.​

  • Serve as a liaison between the project team & the broader community.​
