The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6829, aims to establish a Rural Transit Expansion Fund to enhance public transportation services in rural areas of the state. This fund will be utilized to finance the expansion of these services, maintain rural roads, and provide subsidies for transportation options that connect rural regions to urban centers. The initiative is designed to improve accessibility and mobility for residents in less populated areas.

The bill introduces new legal language to amend the general statutes by creating the Rural Transit Expansion Fund, which is not currently in place. There are no deletions from existing law mentioned in the text, indicating that this is a new provision aimed at addressing the transportation needs of rural communities. The overall purpose of the bill is to provide financial assistance to facilitate the growth and improvement of public transportation in these underserved areas.
