So we are also focusing on Better Bus Microtransit and Special Transportation Services.
We have seen a 48% increase in enrollments for Special Transportation Services, STS.
So we are adding staff and adding vehicles to better support the demand of STS.
This budget will add 30,000 bus service hours.
That's about a 5% increase in total bus service hours and allows us to start to convert those 15 largest routes, not all of them, but some of them, down to 15 minute service as we said we would.
You will see the number of routes in future years increase above this year.
The biggest limiting factor for us today, this budget focuses on hiring operators, but they're limited by the number of vehicles we have.
So we can make some of the service improvements today by hiring operators, but at some point we don't have enough vehicles.
So this budget will also purchase vehicles so that you can see those improvements ramping up even more over the next two and three, four and five years.
Okay, on the capital side.
Go ahead, Mr. Cagle.
All right.
So again, capital budget, you see it broken down into the three categories, supporting current services, expanding services for TSP, and then strengthening organizations' capacity and resilience.
Again, I won't remind you what those are about.
We'll just dive right into the details.
Total capital expenditures,
Estimated for FY27 are 224.9 million dollars, so just shy of 225 million.
That's 66.1 million for existing service
$129.6 million for transit system plan and about $29.2 million for resiliency and most of that $29.2 million is in software systems necessary, especially HR and financial systems necessary for the MPTA.
Excuse me.
