Transportation barriers limit access to affordable housing, job opportunities, educational and cultural opportunities, and quality health care in Northeastern Pennsylvania (NEPA). In response to these barriers, NEPA Moves formed in 2017 to improve the quality of life for all people of Northeastern Pennsylvania through improved access to transportation. Spearheaded by the Scranton Area Community Foundation and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and comprised of over 90 community leaders, NEPA Moves is working diligently to gain a better understanding of the specific barriers of current transit systems and is focused on providing solutions to the transportation challenges through a strategic plan that promotes equity, encourages economic growth, and fosters greater opportunity for all people and communities across Northeastern Pennsylvania.
