Beginning in late 2017, the NADO Research Foundation and project partners Small Urban, Rural, and Tribal Center on Mobility (a consortium led by the Western Transportation Institute at Montana State University) and the National Rural Transit Assistance Program conducted technical assistance related to rural transportation and rural development with support from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development.
