Durham staff outline transit tracker, light-rail policy flags for FY25 work program
Summary
Transportation staff told commissioners the FY25 Durham Annual Transit Work Program will include a twice-yearly transit tracker with performance metrics and finances, and noted staff flagged light rail stations as a policy choice for County consideration and shuttle/micro-transit connections to the Museum of Life and Science.
Transportation Director Ellen Beckmann briefed the Board on the FY25 Durham Annual Transit Work Program, confirming that project performance metrics and financial data will be included in a transit tracker and updated twice a year. She said unspent funds from earlier years would carry forward to future projects and staff could follow up with GoTriangle on additional expenditures.
Ms. Beckmann said light rail stations were flagged as a policy decision for the County to determine how to manage properties at those sites and discussed potential use of shuttles or micro-transit to connect residents to destinations such as the Museum of Life and Science.
No formal action was recorded on the work program during the session; staff indicated the tracker and project lists will be available for board review as the FY25 work program proceeds.
