StarMetro 2021 Major Update – Project Overview
What is it?
StarMetro has launched their 2021 Major Update, which includes two projects.
- Transit Development Plan (TDP) Major Update – While the TDP is a required document to receive funding from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), it also serves as a strategic planning document.
- Comprehensive Operational Analysis (COA) – The COA will take a deep dive into StarMetro’s existing service operations to identify ways to capitalize on system strengths and address weaknesses.
Together, these efforts will craft a short-term action plan to strengthen existing transit services and a longer-term strategy for system development over a 10-year planning horizon.
Is this taking place because of the COVID-19 pandemic?
No. This project was scheduled to take place before the COVID-19 pandemic impacted service.
What should we expect?
- Throughout 2021, StarMetro will invite the community to provide input during virtual meetings and respond to an online survey to “Design Your Own Transit System.”
- The project team will meet with stakeholders throughout this process, including the Capital Region Transportation Planning Agency (CRTPA), FDOT, CareerSource Capital Region, and many others.
- Riders should expect an on-board survey to take place later this year.
