2017 may shape up to be a significant year for transit in Milwaukee – Upcoming opportunities include:
•Potential for Bus Rapid Transit funding announcement from USDOT New Starts

Our work has never been more important. We hope you will join us to celebrate as we continue to move towards these goals.
