The RTA consists of a Board of Directors and a number of committees dealing with day-to-day aspects of the RTA’s operations. Each of these committees are identified in the RTA’s enabling law, PA 387 of 2012. Board members sit on these committees and review proposed actions and staff recommendations prior to Board discussion and approval.
In addition to these committees, the RTA facilitates two independent advisory groups, the Providers Advisory Committee and the Citizens Advisory Committee.
