By Andy Billig and Pam Haley In 2016, voters approved a modest increase in sales tax funding, with an accountability renewal, to expand and modernize Spokane Transit Authority operations. Since then, STA has provided more than 85,000,000 total rides across regular bus, paratransit and rideshare operations, averaging more than 34,000 trips each weekday in 2025. Proposition 1 is not asking voters for new funding.
By Pam Haley and Karl Otterstrom Spokane Transit Authority has a vision to connect everyone to opportunity. As the Spokane region’s public transportation provider, we aspire to provide services that are useful and well-used, helping individuals and families reach the places that matter to them in a timely and cost-effective manner. Public transportation has been a mainstay of Spokane’s transportation system since the first horse-drawn streetcar made its way to Browne’s Addition in 1888.
