GREENVILLE —
Area government leaders and regional transportation officials will be meeting in Greenville next month, to discuss how to improve options for all transit customers in the region.
Representatives from the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG), human service agencies, city and county government officials and transportation providers are scheduled to convene at 1:30 p.m. Monday, December 10, at the Fletcher Warren Civic Center, 5501 US. Highway 69 South.
