SacRT is holding its 2025 Transit Academy on six Thursday evenings from May 15 to June 19. A number of STAR members and others in the transit advocacy community has participated in past years, and speak highly of the experience. Though the academy focuses on SacRT, it would be useful to riders and advocates of the other transit agencies in the region.
From the Transit Academy webpage:
What will I learn about in the Academy sessions?
- Why the benefits of public transit matter – for your household, your business, and the entire community;
- How SacRT implements its management, governance, and budget;
- How SacRT plans and operates transit service;
- How SacRT’s service integrates with transportation in the Sacramento region; and
- What on-the-street elements are needed for transit service placement
