Transportation issues for young people in the area gaining attention

The groups held two forums in the past week, including one in Jaffrey Monday, where nine area youths came out to discuss their concerns about about access to transportation.

According to Renee Sangermano, director of the Jaffrey Parks and Recreation Department, their primary concern was about feeling safe when traveling. Some had negative experiences using public buses, she said. Others said the sidewalks weren’t a great option either."
