Transit

LaBella’s team of experts is dedicated to helping transit agencies and providers expand and enhance revenue service delivery, productivity, and customer experience. We identify key locations for capital investment in on- and off-street infrastructure to boost service reliability, safety, and rider satisfaction. Whether modernizing bus stops, optimizing route alignment or schedules, or executing full network redesigns, our transit practitioners will help craft and deliver practical solutions to meet operational goals.

Our planners can expertly guide agencies, providers, and MPOs through the process of identifying and securing state and federal grant opportunities, and allocating awarded funding in compliance with procedural and reporting requirements.

LaBella’s transit team brings extensive experience in planning, designing, and implementing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridors. Our contributions to these projects span funding administration, alternatives analysis, ridership projections, station design, transit signal priority, vehicle selection and procurement, and service planning. We leverage this expertise to guide Bus Rapid Transit and Priority Corridor projects from conceptualization to revenue service launch.

Facility upgrades and expansions are often required when introducing new or enhanced services, technologies, or vehicle types. LaBella’s experts understand that providing customers with high-frequency, high-quality transit service relies on uninterrupted storage, maintenance, and fueling operations. Acting as your representative, our team will manage multi-disciplinary engineering and architecture design teams to deliver necessary upgrades and minimize disruptions to essential functions.

Whether designing a new mobility hub, off-street transfer facility, or upgrading and expanding your storage and maintenance facility, LaBella will assist you with planning, stakeholder coordination, funding, design, and construction. Our team integrates essential operating context into the design process, giving transit agencies and providers confidence that completed projects will effectively support transit service and passengers.

As zero-emission and carbon reduction goals rapidly evolve, our transit experts are here to guide agencies through the developing market and regulatory landscape. We recognize that the significant capital investment required for new vehicle types, maintenance procedures, refueling practices, facility retrofits, or expansions can be daunting. Transit agencies can rely on LaBella’s experience to provide the guidance and expertise needed to inform decisions on vehicle selection, charging equipment, service upgrades, and state and federal funding opportunities.
