The Michigan Legislature, in completing action on the 2024 state budget during the final week of June, approved record funding for Public Transportation, including an increase of $15 million in the Local Bus Operating line item over 2023 record numbers, as well as a special one-time appropriation of an additional $45 million for public transportation bus operations, bringing the total increase to $60 million for 2024 for bus operating activities. In addition, there is a substantial investment in the bus capital line item of over $30 million toward matching available federal funding for buses, facilities and other capital spending. There are also other line items that positively increase funding for public transportation-related functions of state government.
