The State Transit Assistance budget provides funding for allocation to local transit agencies to fund a portion of the operations and capital costs associated with local mass transportation programs.
MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES Back to Top
  • The 2010-11 budget includes $350 million from Proposition 1B bonds to provide funding to local transit agencies for capital projects. The 2010-11 budget proposes to eliminate the sales tax on fuel, the historical source of state funding for the State Transit Assistance Program, in exchange for an increase in the fuel excise tax rate. However, in addition to the predominantly local funding for local transit operations and capital improvements, local transit agencies will continue to qualify to receive funding for capital projects from other sources such as the State Transportation Improvement Program, the Traffic Congestion Relief Program, and federal funds, in addition to these Proposition 1B bond funds. (see Mass Transportation Program in the Department of Transportation's budget)
