San Luis Obispo Regional Transit Authority (SLORTA, or RTA) is currently updating the Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) for RTA, Runabout and Nipomo Dial-A-Ride.
The updated SRTP will provide an overview of the status of regional services, as well as a blueprint for improvements over the five upcoming fiscal years, including changes to routes and schedules.
The SRTP is being prepared by an outside consulting firm, Majic Consulting Group, which was selected in June, 2008, through an open bidding process.
Preliminary work on the SRTP commenced in July, 2008. The SRTPs are expected to be finalized in the summer of 2009, by Fiscal Year end.
- A survey of RTA riders was conducted during the last two weeks of October;
- All routes have had GPS trackers installed to monitor schedule adherence and on-time performance;
- Maintenance procedures and the new maintenance facility have been reviewed;
- This website, www.rta4tomorrow.com, went live the first week of November;
- The SRTP Administrative Draft was submitted for SLORTA review in November;
- The revised Service Plan and Capital Plan were submitted for SLORTA review in May.
