A cleaner, more connected Palm Beach County
People. Places. Opportunity. A brighter tomorrow.
A business-community proposal for Palm Beach County
Nine corridors. One standard. One vote.
Palm Beach FAST takes the transit corridors the County's own Countywide Transportation Master Plan ranked highest and sets one service standard for all of them: nine corridors, 69 stations, 129 miles of bus corridor, 46 miles of commuter rail and a 5.4-mile downtown people mover. It asks the County Commission for four votes, and the voters for the last one.

Palm Beach FAST
One standard. One signal network.
Frequent, Autonomous, Smart Transit. Countywide.
The network
Palm Beach Rapid Transit.
Four rapid transit lines with bus lanes, three frequent lines with signal priority, the Coastal Link commuter railroad on the FEC from Boca Raton to Jupiter, and a 5.4-mile downtown people mover. 69 stations, 129 miles of bus corridor (58 with bus lanes, 71 with priority) and 46 miles of commuter rail. Every corridor comes from the CTMP's Chapter 3 ranking.

The ask
Four votes by the County Commission. The last vote is yours.
The framework, the ordinance, the ballot language, and then the countywide vote on November 7, 2028. Nothing here is adopted policy.
What the ordinance should lock
Talking points
What to say in two minutes.
Record
Twelve questions, answered from the record.
Supported by our community
Partners along the corridors.
Chambers, CRAs, hospitals, universities, employers, and neighborhood groups on the nine corridors. Endorsements are listed as they are received. Categories are proposals, not received endorsements.
Take part
Three things you can do this month.
Endorse the framework
One sentence: adopt the CTMP as the technical record, complete the nine-corridor transit framework, and put a dedicated half-cent transportation surtax on the 2028 ballot. Sign-on is not open on this prototype.
Speak at the Commission
The County Commission hears the draft CTMP. Use the two-minute talking points and name your corridor. Dates stay with the published County agenda.
Write your commissioner
Seven districts, seven commissioners. Use the letter below. The coalition posts contact details by district when they are issued.
Letter template
Commissioner, I live and work along [corridor]. The County's Countywide Transportation Master Plan heard residents ask for transit, and I am asking you to turn that into something we can see: frequent service, smart signals, and its own lane where the street allows, on the nine corridors the plan already ranked highest.
Please adopt the CTMP as the technical record, adopt a nine-corridor transit framework, and then place a dedicated half-cent transportation surtax on the November 2028 ballot with a written split, a sunset, and citizen oversight. Keep transit on the street. No new flyovers on Okeechobee.
Thank you, [name], [city], [business or organization].
