This blog post is the first in a series that dives into competitive and formula funding for transit in Virginia. In this series, we’ll show how key indicators, such as ridership and operating costs, relate to each other in determining agencies’ ability to compete for State and Federal funding streams. With the insight of transit agency leaders, we consider lessons that Charlottesville and Albemarle County’s transit services can learn from their peers competing for the same pots of money.
Join us this week as we look at CAT’s ridership performance in comparison with fellow Virginian transit agencies in Blacksburg, the Greater Richmond Area and Arlington, and as we ask their decision-makers: what drives successful public transportation systems?
