District Transit Partnership Program

Transit Initiative Program Guidelines

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) developed the Clean California District Transit Partnership Program for the successful delivery of transit projects through collaboration between the Clean CA Program, Caltrans districts, and local/transit agencies. This initiative is centered around the critical role of Caltrans districts in delivering this initiative and underscores the importance of district partnerships with local/transit agencies in their respective jurisdictions. It aims to enhance public transit infrastructure, focusing on active transportation, micro-mobility, and transit station enhancements with art, landscaping, or similar improvements to bus stops and stations. By prioritizing districts and transit agencies facing challenges in waste management, graffiti, and aesthetic appeal, it addresses critical needs while aligning with the CalSTA objectives on climate action.

The goals of Clean California District Transit Partnership Program are to:

• Enhance public spaces and reduce waste.
• Promote Equity and community engagement.
• Implement sustainable practices.
• Protect vulnerable populations.
• Transit station and bus stop enhancements.
• Prioritize active transportation.
• Integrate micro-mobility.

Please contact your local district Clean California Coordinator for more information.
