The RLE TSD Plan is a proactive effort to create a guide for the future development of the long-disinvested communities located near the RLE project area that is also reflective of the vision of those who currently reside and do business in these communities.
The transformational initiative will add over 200 miles of new premium transit services to its existing service network.
The plan focuses on improving social equity by increasing access to jobs and housing, reducing commute times, and increasing service frequency and overnight service, while also contributing to a cleaner environment and a more vibrant economy.
For only $1.75 per trip or less, riders can book a shared ride at a moment’s notice through a smart phone app or by calling a phone number — offering the flexibility of a private car with the affordability and sustainability of public transit.
Agencies are working to implement new and more time-efficient ways to boost the job market, all while maintaining adequate service levels, a balanced budget, and additional funding avenues.
