Why does it EXIST?

• To increase awareness of the importance of Missouri’s transportation system to the citizens of the state through strategic outreach that is issue driven, educational, demographically and geographically inclusive.
• To engage the Missouri General Assembly and the Governor to pass legislation to preserve and improve the state’s transportation system and create opportunities for alliance members to access state leadership including the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission related to transportation issues.
• To create a grassroots organization of geographically inclusive voters who are well-informed on transportation issues.
