Strategic and Financial Study Overview

The overall objective of the Strategic and Financial Plan is for Chapel Hill Transit (CHT) to develop a strategic plan to guide future system growth, development and investment. Doing this requires taking stock of existing resources, articulating agency strengths and weaknesses and considering the how CHT has grown and succeeded as well as ways that the agency has been less successful. Developing a strategic plan also involves evaluating different opportunities for positioning the agency for future growth and development, including different options for investment. A critical part of the strategic planning process, therefore, will involve evaluating if choices are consistent with community goals as well as understanding trade-offs associated with different actions. The planning process will be informed by a stakeholder and public (customer) outreach effort and adopted plans (e.g. Chapel Hill 2020 Comprehensive Plan, Carrboro Vision 2020, UNC Development Plans, etc.). Once CHT’s future direction is determined, the Strategic and Financial Plan will focus on identifying the staffing and organizational resources and funding required to realize CHT’s vision.
