The Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) is a governing board whose primary responsibility is to keep Ventura County moving! The Commission develops and implements transportation policies, projects, funding and priorities for a wide variety of projects. The transportation issues the Commission is responsible for include highways, bus services, aviation services, commuter and freight railroads, bicycling and bike paths, as well as many other transportation areas.
VCTC also controls and reviews the use of federal, state and local funds for transportation and related projects. Additionally, the Commission serves as the Airport Land Use Commission, Service Authority for the Freeway Emergencies and the Congestion Management Agency.
Created by state legislation in 1988, the Ventura County Transportation Commission began operations in 1989. At that time it assumed all of the transportation responsibilities and resources of the Ventura County Association of Governments.
