Advocate. Inform. Collaborate. Lead.
MBTA is leading the way, working with community and state leaders to find sustainable means to maintain and modernize Maine’s transportation infrastructure.


Transportation funding is critical to the Maine economy. Industry, the MaineDOT, current and future administrations, and the legislature must continue to work together to find a long-term funding solution. This is a major win for the State of Maine, but there is still work to be done. MBTA has provided a unified voice for people and organizations across Maine’s transportation industry, and we will continue our mission of promoting safe, efficient, and practical policies that improve the movement of people and goods throughout our state.
