RTA’s Access to Transit program is a brand new program for the region that builds mobility hubs at high-usage, high-need transit stops. Following a thorough community engagement process, the RTA selects priority transit stops based on need, ridership, and connectivity. The RTA collaborates with local communities to make transit easier to access, with investments like crosswalks, bike racks, live schedules, shelters, and wayfinding.
Every Stop Is a Start
Your trip on transit doesn’t begin when you board. It’s everything between your origin and destination. It’s your experience walking or rolling to the bus and waiting for it to arrive.
- ADA accessibility improvements
- Bicycle infrastructure (lane striping, protected lane construction, parking, etc.)
- Bus stop infrastructure (concrete pads, shelters, etc.)
- Intersection improvements (crosswalk, curb extensions, refuge islands, pedestrian signal heads, etc.)
- Mobility hub elements (co-location and installation of multi-modal infrastructure)
- Multi-use paths
- Sidewalks and sidewalk connections
- Rail station improvements (warming shelters, etc.)
- Wayfinding signage (inter-agency transfers and signage with a transit access focus)
- Other innovative projects that support small-scale access to transit improvements
Research indicates that transit stop investments lead to greater ridership on routes, reducing barriers to taking transit. Transit stop infrastructure also enhances feelings of safety, comfort, and community.
