INNOVATIVE TRANSPORTATION SOLUTIONS
WTS members across the globe share a common commitment to advancing women in transportation – the core mission that guides our organization. We also recognize that transportation has a tremendous impact on advancing people’s lives each and every day.

As women in transportation, we are mothers, daughters, wives, sisters, caregivers, community volunteers, mentors, and more. We recognize the role of transportation in supporting our communities. Transportation transforms lives and ties communities together through mobility. Mobility supports core community values such as healthy children and families, better opportunities for advancement and peaceful safer neighborhoods.

Whether it is a van trip to the doctor’s office for dialysis, a shared ride to third-shift jobs, senior citizen day trips or safe refugee transport, transportation organizations in our community work each day to improve the lives of citizens through better transportation. Through the Innovative Transportation Solutions Award, WTS annually salutes the creative work of an organization whose outstanding and innovative transportation project or service has improved the quality of life for its users and the community.

Selection criteria is based on an individual, organization or program that has exemplified:

• How the transportation element of the program has contributed to the success of the initiative.
• How the project supports one or more key community values, such as improved accessibility to key services, employment, or other opportunities.
• What obstacles, if any, were overcome to provide this service or build this project.
• How it has made a difference in the lives of its users.
