Cook County Transit Plan

The Cook County Department of Transportation and Highways (DoTH) is creating its first-ever county-wide transit plan, focusing on equitable investments, boosting ridership, and increasing seamless transit operations throughout the region.

MUSE is leading community engagement and outreach for the plan, including creating a project website, online survey, and conducting listening sessions and focus groups. Our approach centers residents who are most transit reliant, to ensure recommendations made in the plan are rooted in equity. 

Our efforts are supported by an accountability partner, Transportation Equity Network (TEN), to ensure an equitable approach to the process as a whole.
