Connect 2035 articulates Spokane Transit Authority’s strategic roadmap for bus, paratransit, and vanpool service through 2035, with a clear vision supported by goals and strategies. It builds on the successes of our previous strategic plan, STA Moving Forward, to address emerging needs and continued investment in equity, sustainability, and community growth. Ultimately, it enables us to identify priorities for the next 10 years and beyond—all while building and strengthening relationships with and within the community.
Phase 1, the Strategic Foundation, was adopted by the STA Board of Directors on December 15, 2022. It includes revised vision and mission statements, goals, high level strategies, and performance measures. Phase 2, which is expected to begin in the second half of 2023, will include identifying and prioritizing specific projects and establishing performance measures.
