Overview TDP ’23 – SCTA’s Transit Development Plan

In November 2022, the South Central Transit Authority (SCTA) began an update to the Transit Development Plan (TDP) for the fixed-route bus and paratransit services in Berks and Lancaster Counties.  The TDP will serve as a guide for meeting future demands for transit services and increasing the overall use of public transit.

Development of the TDP involves:

• Identifying demographics, travel trends, and land use patterns
• Evaluating current BARTA and RRTA service
• Gathering input from riders and the public regarding existing services and future needs
• Establishing goals and strategies to address unmet transit needs and service issues, such as connecting employees to their place of work
• Identifying and evaluating opportunities for potential growth
• Estimating the level of funding available to provide transit services over the life of the plan
• Evaluation of Microtransit in Lancaster County
