Caltrans Director's Transit Policy

The Caltrans Director’s Transit Policy will serve as a high-level guide that outlines the Department’s commitment to supporting public transit on the State Highway System. The policy encourages flexible, context-sensitive solutions to better connect and improve transit options for people of all ages and abilities. Where feasible, Caltrans will integrate public transit features within highway projects to strengthen transit networks across the state. To put the policy into action, Caltrans is also developing an implementation plan with specific steps and strategies. This plan will be informed by input from partners and stakeholders and is expected to be released in summer 2026.
