What could be SMARTer?

Sacramento Metro Advocates for Rail and Transit educates and advocates to bring the benefits of public mass transit and rail to the Sacramento Region. Many have recognized the need to organize the broad array of transit stakeholders so our support is visible. Organized transit stakeholders are vital to presenting the benefits of transit to our larger community and calling for investment in high quality transit for our region.

Since June 2019, SMART has gathered over 200 mass transit and rail stakeholders in our community including business, civic leaders, community organizations, labor, elected officials, and individuals. The initiatives and proposals to expand and modernize our transit and rail in the Sacramento Region will fall short without new levels of investment. Transit and rail service is the only mode that has the scale, technology and efficiency to move the most people at one time, increase the efficiency and safety of our road system, save households money, and keep our air breathable and our climate safe.
