The Charles County public transportation provider, VanGo, encourages the public to take an online survey regarding public bus transportation needs and services in Charles County. The survey is available online at www.surveymonkey.com/r/VanGoPublic. Surveys need to be completed by June 30, 2017.

In addition to the public opinion survey, a rider survey has been conducted aboard the buses in May. These surveys are part of the data collection effort for a Transit Development Plan (TDP) that is currently underway for VanGo. The purpose of the transit planning study is to develop a five-year plan to maintain and improve public transportation services in the region. The TDP is being conducted by the KFH Group, a consulting firm that specializes in the transit industry, with funding assistance through the Maryland Transit Administration.
