The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC Southern Nevada) was awarded a $700,000 Project Grant from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) through its Metropolitan Transportation Planning and State and Non-Metropolitan Planning and Research program (CFDA 20.505). The purpose of this grant is to develop an Equitable Access to Mobility Action Plan that will improve sustainable and equitable transit and mobility infrastructure in identified areas of persistent poverty in Southern Nevada.
The key activities funded through this grant include developing community and stakeholder engagement plans, identifying potential locations for neighborhood mobility hubs, enhancing transit amenities, designing conceptual options for mobility hubs and amenities, and preparing an implementation matrix and final action plan. The expected outcomes are improved reliability and accessibility of the transit system within the project area, benefiting current and new transit riders. Clark County's Desert Conservation Program will also be involved as a subrecipient, contributing their expertise in environmental conservation and community engagement initiatives.
