Ridership measures the state's progress toward its transit-related goals. Minnesota stat. 174.01 defines these goals as 1) providing transit service in all counties that meets the needs of transit users, 2) increasing the use of high-occupancy and low-emission vehicles, and 3) increasing the use of transit as a percentage of all trips.

WHAT WE ARE DOING

Greater Minnesota's 47 public transit systems are operated by local governments, joint powers organizations, non-profits, and tribal governments. The number of passenger boardings (rides) is recorded daily by all transit systems and reported to MnDOT monthly. MnDOT supports these systems through planning, research, technical assistance, and management of state and federal transit funding programs. Consistent with the Greater Minnesota Transit Investment Plan, MnDOT's first priority is continuation of financial assistance to systems meeting performance standards, then expanding transit service into new areas, and finally to expand the frequency, coverage, and daily duration of service currently provided.
