BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clarita (City) strives to provide safety and accessibility for our patrons. Over
bus stops have included improved access and
sideways, real-time bus arrival information, new passenger amenities, and in-street concrete pads
to extend the life of our roadways.
The bus stop improvements project is a federally funded grant project from the Federal Transit
Administration that provides transit enhancement funding to eligible transit operators.
If approved by Council, this project will improve 29 existing bus stops citywide by replacing
damaged and worn bus shelters, benches and trash receptacles. It will also improve safety with
the installation of brighter solar powered LED lighting.
