The plan meet the following state requirements to:
- Provide more frequent bus service to low-income areas.
- Expand bus routes and services to low-income areas.
- Fund reduced-fare programs in low-income areas.
- Use low- or no-emission vehicles.
- Improve service to TriMet and South Metro Area Regional Transit (SMART) areas.
- Coordinate between service providers to improve service connections.
- Provide transit service for students in grades 9-12.
