The primary goal of TOA's Transit Team is to develop solutions for transit operators and public agencies responsible for transit plans, operational assessments, and special transit studies. TOA prepares transit plans that are not only technically sound but also understood and supported by decision-makers, transit patrons, and citizens in the community, which are key components to making a transit plan become reality.  The TOA Transit Team understands the importance of transit in both urban and rural communities throughout the U.S. As a result, TOA is committed to providing clients with solutions that are specific to the service area and contribute to a successful transit system both today and in the future.  Members of the Transit Team offer experience working for transit agencies, the Florida Department of Transportation, metropolitan planning organizations, and research institutions.
