Transportation

ECICOG helps connects our region by planning for efficient and effective transportation, whether by car, rail, bus, bike or foot. Our transportation department provides transportation planning assistance to local communities and manages regional transit programs to improve mobility for those unable to drive. 
​
ECICOG serves as the Regional Planning Affiliation (RPA) for Benton, Cedar, Iowa, Jones, Johnson, Linn, and Washington counties (Region 10) and as the transit system through our CorridorRides programs. 

CorridorRides

ECICOG manages funding and contracts with third-parties to provide CorridorRides, our regional transportation service. CorridorRides includes Rural Dail-A-Ride, 380Express (a commuter service between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City), and VanPool and carpool programs.
ECICOG also serves as the Regional Planning Affiliation serving Benton, Cedar, Jones, Linn, Iowa, and Washington Counties outside of the Corridor MPO and the MPO of Johnson County.

Flexible funding that may be used for projects to preserve and improve the conditions and performance on any Federal-aid highway, bridge and tunnel projects on any public road, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and transit capital projects.
