Gold Coast Transit District SRTP

The last few years have brought significant change to West Ventura County, impacting every aspect of life – including public transportation. To better serve the community, Gold Coast Transit District (GCTD) needs a transportation network that reflects the new ways in which riders live, work, shop, travel, and play. As a result, GCTD selected TMD to develop a Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) to guide future operational changes and capital projects.

The purpose of the SRTP is to improve mobility and quality of life in the region by:

• Enhancing transit effectiveness and efficiency,
• Restructuring bus service to optimize economic growth and regional connectivity,
• Assessing the feasibility of creating a higher-quality transit corridor between Oxnard and Ventura, and
• Improving ridership, reliability, and customer experience.

TMD developed a phased plan that focused on providing high-quality transit that meets the needs of the Gold Coast service area and community for the foreseeable future. The Final SRTP was adopted by the Board in November of 2024.
