  The Grand Jury reconunends that RABA develop paitnerships that benefit RABA and its customers in the areas ofD emand Response and regional bus service with SRTA that could help reduce operating costs. Response: RABA agrees with this recommendation. SRT A is currently contracting with a consultant to provide recommendations on how to efficiently utilize the Consolidated Transportation Services Agency (CTSA) and other transportation providers to best serve the co1nn1uuily needs. RABA staff will work closely with SRTA to develop options to coordinate and consolidate transpo1tation services by multiple providers to ensure duplication of se1vices is minimized and resources are shared to provide the most efficient and convenient service to the conununity. However, regional bus se1vice outside the RABA service area is the responsibility of other jurisdiction providers and involvement is limited to c01mnunication and coordination of se1vices. RS. The Grand Jmy recommends that within one year, RABA needs to have bus arrival tinles posted at locations used by its riders and update the infonnation on locations stated on the website where schedules and maps are available and insure distribution ofand post schedules and maps at se1vice agencies, schools, high volume rider destinations and transit stops. Response: RABA intends to implement this recommendation. The RABA Board recently approved the SRTP. The SRTP proposes improvements to the fixed route system and includes recouunendations on how the information is c01mnunicated to customers. This will include updated stop and schedule information at transit stops, transfer centers, and the RABA website. Staff will also update ·the Ride Guide distribution list to reflect current agencies and outlets. In addition, RABA intends to update its GPS teclmology and Intelligent Transportation Systems that will likely include real time bus monitoring and text messaging of anival times and delays.
