Bill > HB06829

This bill establishes a Rural Transit Expansion Fund designed to support public transportation infrastructure and services in rural areas of the state. The fund will serve multiple purposes, including financing the expansion of public transportation services in rural regions, maintaining rural roads, and providing subsidies for transportation services that create connections between rural and urban areas. By creating this dedicated funding mechanism, the bill aims to improve transportation accessibility and infrastructure for rural communities, potentially helping residents with limited transportation options to more easily travel within and between rural and urban areas. The fund represents a strategic approach to addressing transportation challenges in less densely populated regions by providing financial resources specifically targeted at enhancing rural transit capabilities.
