Regional Transit Safety Performance Targets
There are three transit agencies in the Fresno County, Fresno Area Express (FAX), Clovis Transit, and Fresno County Rural Transit Agency (FCRTA). However, FAX is the sole agency in the region required by Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to develop the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) and set the annual transit safety targets. Clovis Transit and FCRTA are exempted from the PTASP requirements. Hence, the regional annual transit safety targets would be same as that of FAX.
