The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Transit Administration, requires that transit providers undertake a short-range planning process every five to seven years.
The Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) has begun the update for its Short-Range Transit Plan, and TTD is creating this webpage to solicit public comments during the process.
The TTD Board approved the most recent Short-Range Transit Plan (SRTP) on October 13, 2017, and it was amended on December 15, 2017. Since 2017, service has undergone significant changes and operational conditions (labor, funding, regulatory, and capital) have continued to evolve.
Significant goals for the 2017 SRTP were to reach a twenty-percent transit mode split target within twenty years; garner a sixty-million-dollar revenue stream; establish a regional control center; address parking deficits; develop mobility hubs and introduce a “free fare” transit service where appropriate.
There will be two public presentations on the short-term plan, one on Tuesday, August 6 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., and the other on Tuesday, August 13 from noon to 1 p.m.
The presentations are online via computer or mobile device. The meeting link is https://www.tahoetransportation.org/meetings-and-agendas/transit/
The virtual format will allow for the public to participate easily and listen about the goals, and obstacles, of South Shore’s transit system. Learn about the history of transit, current services, and what’s in review for the future. Please plan to join us to share your feedback and ideas.
