About the company
Rock Region Metropolitan Transit Authority, doing business as Rock Region Metro, is a U.S. local government transit authority based in North Little Rock, Arkansas, serving the Little Rock urbanized area and surrounding regions including Conway and Faulkner County. The organization operates as a public transportation provider delivering comprehensive transit services to residents across multiple Arkansas communities. Rock Region Metro has established itself as a significant recipient of federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration, demonstrating a strong capacity to manage and execute federal transportation infrastructure and operational projects.
Rock Region Metro has successfully secured substantial federal grant awards totaling over $60 million in recent years, primarily through Federal Transit Administration formula grants and project grants under various funding programs including the Federal Transit Formula Grants (CFDA 20.507), Buses and Bus Facilities Formula, Competitive, and Low or No Emissions Programs (CFDA 20.526), and the State of Good Repair Grants Program (CFDA 20.525). The organization has utilized these funds to purchase replacement buses and vans with a focus on low or no-emission vehicles, including compressed natural gas (CNG) buses and battery electric buses, along with associated capital equipment such as fare collection systems, radios, and communication infrastructure. Rock Region Metro has funded preventive maintenance activities, capital improvements to administrative facilities, short-range planning initiatives, and operating assistance to sustain paratransit and vanpool services serving populations with special transportation needs. Additionally, the authority has invested in technology infrastructure including computer hardware and software for tracking and scheduling systems, security equipment including on-board camera and digital video recorder systems, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) projects with real-time information capabilities, and passenger amenities such as bus shelter construction with heating systems and arrival screens. The organization has also supported streetcar system improvements, including replacement of aging components with multi-year lifespans such as inverters and compressors, overhead catenary system repairs, and rail-related intelligent transportation systems equipment. Rock Region Metro executed these grants without identified subrecipient activities, implementing all projects directly as the sole recipient of FTA formula funding for the Little Rock and Conway urbanized areas.
