Transit Trends

Increased Transportation Coordination through Mobility Transformation As a result of the Ohio Mobility Transformation Study that ODOT participated in, Ohio is increasing transportation efficiency and effectiveness by coordinating transit services with human services transportation. ODOT is working with 14 state agencies, including the Ohio Department of Medicaid, to align policies that will make transportation coordination possible while also creating transportation regions around the state. ODOT is also funding scheduling and dispatching software at 34 rural transit systems with broadband access improvements that will be used by public and social service transportation providers.

Moving Toward 2045 -- Future Transit Needs

Ohio's transit system has over 3,000 active, non-rail vehicles. There are also 114 rail vehicles in Ohio's fleet that are part of the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit District and Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Agency.

10-Year Vehicle Asset Needs ? 97% of the rolling stock needs are associated with urban systems, rail and non-rail vehicles

? Nearly 1/5 of the estimated rolling stock needs is to replace vehicles that were beyond their useful life in 2014

? Assuming current levels of federal funding are available over the next 10 years, it is estimated that additional funding resources will be needed for rolling stock replacement
