CTAC was established in March of 2009 as an advisory committee to Tri-County CAP, Inc. for the comprehensive, coordinated, efficient, and affordable transit system for Carroll County residents and visitors. To ensure a wide geographic and diverse representation, Boards of selectmen were asked to appoint a community member. Transportation providers and social service agency personnel were recruited. Regional and state agency personnel also serve on CTAC. See Organizational Structure.
