All Stops Accessible Program St. Charles Streetcar Project

  1. Home
  2. Current Projects
  3. All Stops Accessible Program St. Charles Streetcar Project

Project Overview

In an effort to increase service reliability, rider safety, and accessibility along the St. Charles streetcar line, the RTA will be ensuring that all stops along the route are fully ADA-compliant by August 31, 2028. The project requires some stop consolidation and rebalancing, in line with RTA fixed-route service standards. Remaining stops will be brought into ADA and PROWAG compliance so that riders of all abilities may utilize the St. Charles streetcar service safely and comfortably.


Goals 

  • Full ADA-compliance by August 31, 2028
  • Faster and more reliable streetcar service
  • Increased safety for riders along the route
