RTC Transit
In 1983, state legislation deemed the agency capable of owning and operating a public mass transit system that today carries more than 64 million riders per year and expands as needed with careful planning to better serve the Las Vegas Valley. The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) transit fleet consists of 36 routes served by 379 vehicles. In 2009, RTC Transit carried 57,738,930 passengers in the greater Las Vegas Valley. RTC Transit consists of 35 fixed route service routes, Las Vegas Strip service routes such as The Deuce, Gold Line and commuter services such as the Express.

Famous quotes containing the word transit:
“My esoteric doctrine, is that if you entertain any doubt, it is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular, is easy ... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
