The RTA is the financial oversight and regional planning body for the three public transit operators
in northeastern Illinois: the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), Metra commuter rail and Pace suburban bus.
The Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) was created in 1974 upon the approval of a referendum by the
residents of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will counties in northeastern Illinois.
The RTA is a special purpose unit of local government and a municipal corporation of the state of Illinois.
From the time of its creation, the RTA's mission has been to ensure financially sound, comprehensive and
coordinated public transportation for northeastern Illinois.
