The purpose of the Small Urban & Rural Transit Center (SURTC) is to increase the mobility of small urban and rural residents through improved public transportation.

This will be accomplished by providing transit stakeholders, users, providers, suppliers, and agencies, with the information, knowledge, and trained human capital that will allow them to take advantage of the latest technology, and better operation and management paradigms.
