Request for Letters of Interest: Durham and Orange County Transit Staffing Study

The Triangle West Transportation Planning Organization is seeking consultant services to conduct a staffing analysis of partner agencies responsible for implementing the Durham and Orange County Transit Plans. This analysis should assess current transit activities in both counties, determine the appropriate staffing levels for each agency, and provide guidance on how staffing allocations should adapt as the overall transit programs evolve. Additionally, the consultant will develop a standardized approach for administrative practices related to charging staff time. This will ensure consistent and transparent reporting across agencies and confirm that Durham and Orange Transit funds are used in compliance with statutory requirements.
