Richmond Metropolitan Transportation Authority Revenue and Competitors

The mission of the RMTA is to build and operate a variety of public facilities and offer public services, especially transportation related, within the Richmond metropolitan area, each of which is operated and financed primarily by user fees. Our efforts are dedicated to the following constituents: To our customers, we will provide safe, convenient, efficient facilities and excellent customer service while maintaining the lowest feasible costs. To our employees, we will promote a safe and pleasant work environment, provide an opportunity to advance according to their abilities and fairly compensate based on performance. To our bondholders, we will operate in a financially sound and prudent manner and meet all debt payments and other legally imposed requirements to insure the protection of their interests. Our mission can be best accomplished through the sound management of existing projects and consideration of additional projects as approved by the City of Richmond and the Counties of Chesterfield and Henrico. These projects are financed primarily through user fee schedules which offer the lowest possible costs to the public, fairly compensate employees, and offer financial safety to bondholders
