Show Notes
Pima County voters have approved a $2.67 billion, 20-year transportation plan, RTA Next, which includes a half-cent sales tax extension. The plan, Proposition 418, and its funding, Proposition 419, passed with wide margins, ensuring steady sales tax rates and avoiding increases. The plan allocates $726 million for regional bus operations, stabilizing Sun Tran and other services. It also completes seven pending projects from the previous plan, focusing on road improvements across the county. This approval marks a significant victory for infrastructure after nearly two decades of planning.
