*Who is Tahoe Transportation District?

The Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) is a bi-state agency responsible for the management and implementation of safe, environmentally friendly, multi-modal transportation projects and programs in the Lake Tahoe Region, including transit operations on South Shore Lake Tahoe.

Projects support transit operations to effect change within the Lake Tahoe Region to make travel safer, improve access to recreational areas, and reduce traffic congestion and private car use.

These changes help improve air quality and restore lake clarity and are critical to protecting Lake Tahoe’s water clarity because more than 70 percent of the pollutants impacting the lake’s clarity come from the transportation system and built environment run-off.

TTD leads multi-jurisdictional transportation projects throughout the Lake Tahoe Basin and has delivered numerous infrastructure projects in response to negative impacts residents and visitors put on the environment and transportation infrastructure. Projects include implementation of transit solutions, road safety and roadway improvements, water quality improvements and pedestrian/cyclist paths.
