AMSTERDAM What might be a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up necessities for some people can be an all-day task for families in the city who lack access to public transportation, according to John Sumpter, director of youth outreach at Creative Connections Clubhouse.
“I think it is very important to bring the city bus back to Amsterdam. We have a lot of families out here that need it,” Sumpter said.
Sumpter joined over a dozen community members and local officials outside of Creative Connections on East Main Street on Wednesday imploring state and federal officials to approve plans that would extend CDTA services to the city and Montgomery County.
