The Minnesota Public Transit Association (MPTA) is the only organization in Minnesota comprised of transit providers and advocates from all over the state that is independent and focused on improving all transit systems.
Created in 1975, MPTA advocates on your behalf for equitable transit funding to improve the service that thousands of Minnesota residents rely upon every day.
Your membership provides MPTA with more resources and a stronger voice at the Capitol. Without MPTA, transit advocates would not be as effective.
