The bill revises public transit laws in Montana, specifically regarding the creation and expansion of urban transportation districts. It allows a county commission to initiate the process for these changes through a resolution, which must include a map of the proposed district and call for a public hearing. Additionally, the bill mandates that urban transportation districts maintain an inventory of areas added to the district and permits the removal of areas that have not received direct transportation service for five years without being subject to existing indebtedness.

Furthermore, the bill expands the scope of municipal bus services, allowing them to exceed an 8-mile limit from local boundaries under certain conditions, such as external funding or interlocal agreements. It also includes various amendments to existing sections of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) to reflect these changes, including the definitions of terms related to transportation services and the procedures for petitioning and voting on the creation or enlargement of transportation districts.
