Climate Action Plan

Join Us in Shaping a Sustainable and Resilient Future for Transportation in Jefferson County 

Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, with far-reaching impacts on our environment, economy, and quality of life. At Jefferson Transit Authority (JTA), we are committed to addressing climate change by creating a more sustainable and resilient transportation system that benefits our community and future generations. As part of this commitment, we are developing a Climate Action Plan to guide our efforts in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, promoting clean and efficient transit options, and enhancing our community’s resilience to climate impacts. 

Your Input Matters 

We need your input! Your feedback, ideas, and insights will help shape our Climate Action Plan to ensure that it reflects the needs and priorities of our community.
