The RTA Funding Solution - Fact Sheet (Español)

Projects of the $2.1 billion Regional Transportation Authority plan are funded by a half-cent transaction privilege tax (also known as an excise tax), which was approved by Pima County voters in May 2006. The half-cent excise tax is collected from the state-established RTA special taxing district within Pima County to deliver projects in the RTA plan.

Currently, the tax will continue through June 30, 2026. The 20-year plan (FY 2007-26)  includes road, transit, safety, and environmental and economic vitality projects.

The Regional Transportation Authority, an independent local government, is managed by Pima Association of Governments.
