Do you regularly use VTA’s transit system and are passionate about ensuring a safe and secure environment for all riders? Then you should join the Transit Security Advisory Committee (TSAC), the new advisory committee to oversee the implementation of AB1735. AB1735 gives VTA the right to ban any passenger who has shown a pattern of bad behavior from its system. This includes people who assault VTA staff or members of the public. Now, it is possible to ban them from riding VTA Transit and/or returning to VTA property. VTA is among only five agencies in the state that have granted this power within the law. What do you say?

2moWith this tool, VTA has the ability to ban riders and so comes the responsibility to use it fairly. TSAC will provide needed oversight.
