Regional Transit Authority

A Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is an organization responsible for planning, funding, and managing public transportation systems within a specific metropolitan area. RTAs aim to provide efficient and reliable transit options, such as buses and trains, to help residents commute, reduce traffic congestion, and promote sustainable transportation. They typically work in coordination with local governments and community stakeholders to improve access and mobility within the region, facilitating economic growth and ensuring that public transit meets the needs of the population.
