Performance and Oversight

Federal and state regulations require SACOG to measure and oversee the performance of the regional transit system.

Annual Transit Pulse Report

Starting in 2025, SACOG will publish an annual report that summarizes the health of the overall regional transit system, including emerging ridership and service trends, shifts in financial resources or cost efficiencies, and other major changes underway on the transit system over the prior year. 

The 2024 Annual Transit Pulse Report is anticipated to be published by December 2025.

Triennial Performance Audit

The Transportation Development Act (TDA) requires SACOG to conduct a performance audit of transit operators who receive TDA funding every three years. The audits highlight key trends that may have an impact on an operator's ridership and financial performance.

Senate Bill 125 Accountability Measures

As part of the Senate Bill 125 Transit Program, the SACOG Board of Directors also adopted a set of accountability measures for transit agencies receiving funding from the program to address operating budget deficits. For more information, see the program page.
