SBCTA Approves Omnitrans Short Range Transit Plan

June 12, 2023

The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) requires each transit agency to prepare a short-range transit plan (SRTP), which is typically a five-year operating and capital plan. Operators update their SRTP based on current funding projections, from SBCTA, as well as performance trends analyzed through the SRTP process.

Through the collaboration with SBCTA, Omnitrans’ projected financial position remains balanced in both operating and capital forecast through 2030. The majority cost over this time period continues to be the operational cost; however, there is an increase in capital due to Zero Emission Bus (ZEB) requirements.

During the time period of this SRTP, Omnitrans will be working on the following key components:

• Service Resumption
• sbX Purple Line (West Valley Connector Project
• ZEB Implementation
• Improving Frequency
• Introducing Innovative Services
• Fare Technology
• Enhancing Bus Stop Amenities
