One solution to mobility problems in New Mexico is to
create Regional Transit Districts (RTDs) which allow state, local, and
tribal governments to connect existing local transit services and expand
to cover unserved localities and provide more accessible and affordable
transit services for rural residents, especially those people who suffer
from mobility limitations due to age, poverty, or disability. RTDs
can ease redundancy, make transit services more efficient, improve the
quality of tourism in the state, and allow for more serious discussions
of larger transit options, such as commuter rail.
