MTC Scores State and National Awards
The California Council for Environmen- tal and Economic Balance has recognized MTC, BART and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District with the prestigious “Edmund G. ‘Pat’ Brown Award” for the agencies’ innovative partnership in initiating the Spare the Air free-transit program, which is now in its third year (see story).
In addition, two MTC initiatives have been honored with national Transportation Planning Excellence Awards: the Transportation 2030 Plan as well as the Transit-Oriented Development Policy for Regional Transit Extensions. The awards program is sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration together with the American Planning Association.
