A Nationwide Vision: Transit to Trails
CATA Transit to Trails is part of a larger movement across the country to improve access to parks, trails and outdoor spaces via public transportation. By linking bus routes with non-motorized trails, we’re making sustainable travel easier, healthier and more accessible.
We are proud to have received funding through the national Transit to Trails initiative. This project prioritizes underserved neighborhoods, ensuring that everyone in Lansing can enjoy the health and recreational benefits of the Lansing River Trail.
A Community Partnership for a More Connected Lansing
CATA has partnered with the City of Lansing and Friends of the Lansing Regional Trails to enhance access to Lansing’s incredible trail system. Together, we’re ensuring that public transportation and outdoor recreation go hand in hand for the benefit of all.
