SacRT’s is embarking on a Comprehensive Operational Analysis. This effort will provide an opportunity to take a fresh look at our service offerings and will culminate in an update of both SacRT’s Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) and Long Range Transit Plan (LRTP).

The SRTP includes planned service changes, fleet planning, and budget forecasts for the five-year period from 2026 to 2030. In accordance with Senate Bill 125, one of the key goals of the SRTP is to achieve fiscal sustainability without major service reductions or fare increases. The SRTP will also include an analysis of many recent major changes and initiatives at SacRT over the past several years, including changes to travel patterns from the COVID-19 pandemic, annexation of Elk Grove transit service, and major changes to SacRT’s microtransit service (i.e., SacRT Flex).

Last updated in 2011, the LRTP will develop a long-term vision for capital improvements along the SacRT system and create a prioritized list of projects over the next 30 years. SacRT intends this updated LRTP to culminate in technically sound, fiscally realistic, and publicly-supported expenditure plans for both a “business as usual” financial scenario and a potential new local funding measure.  In consultation with our member agencies, we intend to balance state-of-good-repair needs with system expansion goals, and ensure consistency with the Sacramento Area Council of Government’s Blueprint 2025 plan.

Under SacRT policy, any major changes to service and any fare changes (i.e., any such changes proposed in the SRTP) require a minimum 30-day public review, a Title VI equity analysis, and approval of the SacRT Board of Directors. Additionally, SacRT will be holding a number of in-person and virtual meetings on the project (dates and times below).
