Title
AC Transit & Transit Shelter Agreement Update
Staffreport
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
AC Transit staff will provide the Committee a service overview and update as well as an update and recommendations for the Transit Shelter Agreement.
DISCUSSION
Since 1999, AC Transit and San Leandro, along with seven other public agencies, have been members of Joint Powers Authority that administers a Transit Shelter Agreement with Clear Channel Outdoor Advertising to do all maintenance and capital work in exchange for advertising revenue in shelters. This agreement expired on March 2023.
Historically, advertising revenue paid for maintenance and capital costs. However, as advertising revenue has moved online, revenue in transit shelters has decreased while costs to maintaining infrastructure have increased.
AC Transit is shifting to a new model that continues maintenance services that will continue to provide a dignified bus stop waiting experience for transit riders.
