One of the most significant deliverables for the NFRMPO’s Mobility Program is the Coordinated Public Transit/Human Service Transportation Plan (Coordinated Plan). The Coordinated Plan aims to identify transportation issues, service overlaps, and gaps affecting vulnerable populations, including older adults, individuals with disabilities, and low-income individuals, within the urbanized portions of Larimer and Weld counties. It also outlines goals and strategies to address these identified issues.
As a recipient of FTA §5310 funds, the NFRMPO updates the Coordinated Plan every four years with guidance from the Larimer and Weld County Mobility Committees, local stakeholders, transportation providers, and other public members. The need for improved transportation for older adults and individuals with disabilities has been known. It remains an issue in large and small communities within the NFRMPO region. Current programs and strategies are insufficient to meet this growing demand and require additional support.
The Coordinated Plan is a forward-looking initiative that brings together representatives from human services and transit agencies to establish strategies, goals, and objectives for the three Mobility Committees over the next four years. Human service agencies provide transportation to older adults, individuals with disabilities, and people with lower incomes. By uniting these groups with the transit agencies, we can ensure that each agency is better equipped to serve those in need and that we are building a brighter future for all.
SAFETEA-LU and subsequent transportation legislation require Coordinated Plans to:
- Identify the transportation needs of individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people with low incomes;
- Provide strategies for meeting those needs; and
- Prioritize transportation services for funding and implementation.
The current 2025 Coordinated Plan was adopted by the NFRMPO Planning Council in December 2025, with support from the Larimer County and Weld County Mobility Committees. The Coordinated Plan is updated every four years. For more information on the 2025 Coordinated Plan, please refer to the information below.

To further the goals and strategies identified in the 2021 Coordinated Plan, the Larimer County and Weld County Mobility Committees created and adopted the first Regional Mobility Action Plan (MAP) in early 2022.

The 2025 Coordinated Plan
The Coordinated Plan is updated every four years. The current edition was released in 2025, indicating that the next update is expected in 2029. The Plan includes an inclusive planning process for older adults, individuals with disabilities, low-income people, public and private transportation providers, and other stakeholders. The NFRMPO completes the Coordinated Plan on behalf of the three large transit agencies in the region.
The Coordinated Plan identifies the transportation and mobility needs of individuals with disabilities, older adults, and people with low incomes and consists of three distinct sections:
- Analysis of existing conditions, including demographics and providers.
- Analyze transportation needs for individuals with disabilities and older adults, including gaps in service.
- Strategies, activities, and/or projects to address the identified gaps between services and needs.
The Coordinated Plan builds upon the mobility management efforts outlined in previous Coordinated Plans. Examples of mobility management include transportation brokerages, coordinated transportation services, building and supporting local partnerships, travel training, trip planning, one-call/one-click centers, and investing in technologies such as intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Using this information, the NFRMPO recommends a prioritized list of implementation strategies based on resources, time, and feasibility. This list of strategies will be in effect from December 2025 to December 2029.
