PLANS & PROJECTS

Master Plan

RFTA is developing a long-range Master Plan to help guide the agency over the next 10 to 20 years. The process will look at future needs for transit and trail services, facilities, technology, customer experience, workforce, and major investments. Community input is a key part of developing the plan. Feedback from riders, residents, local governments, businesses, and regional partners will help shape future priorities. Learn about the Master Plan and take the community survey.
