RTA Next
The current RTA plan will expire at the end of June 2026. The Regional Transportation Authority finalized a new 20-year regional transportation plan (RTA Next) to improve the transportation network in the greater Tucson region. The RTA Next plan will be on the ballot March 10, 2026, when voters in Pima County will have the say on the $2.67 billion regional transportation plan for the next 20 years. Voters need to approve the half-cent sales tax to continue funding for another 20 years since the current sales tax will expire in March 31, 2026.
The new $2.67 billion plan will include:
- $1.2 billion (+$741M non-RTA funding) for roadway (multimodal) corridors
- 31 corridor improvement projects, roadway lane enhancements, bus pullouts, bike lanes, pedestrian facilities.
- $257 million (+237M non-RTA funding) for roadway project modification/completions
- $254.6 million for safety, ADA and active transportation
