Short-Range Transit Plan Update

The SVMPO supports local transit agencies with planning for the next five years of investments in public transit services. An update to the 2014 transit plan is now underway and will include recommendations for regional connections within the transit systems of all three of the MPO member jurisdictions. Michael-Baker, with the Gordley Group, are assisting the SVMPO to develop the first transit plan update that includes the expanded MPO area.

This planning effort ensures continued federal and state transit funding for the City of Sierra Vista’s Vista Transit service, provides guidance for the Cochise Commuter and Town of Huachuca City connector routes, as well as other public transit services, like Greyhound or shuttles linking riders to locations outside of the region.

This page will be continually updated as this short-range transit planning effort continues through the first half of 2021. This update is expected to be completed in the summer of 2021.

LOOKING FOR YOUR COMMENTS! Public input helps the SVMPO and the Study Team better understand what your transit travel needs and preferred options are, improvements you would like to see in the future, and what your priorities are for our limited transit transportation funding.
