Access North Texas—2026 Update
Access North Texas is the regional public transportation coordination plan for the 16-county North Central Texas area.

Transit Strategic Partnerships
The Transit Strategic Partnerships Program is a competitive grant program that funds innovative transit projects supporting services for seniors, persons with disabilities and low-income populations from public agencies looking to directly implement service and those seeking partnership with an existing transit provider. Proposed projects must be in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington and Denton-Lewisville Urbanized areas. The May 2023 Cycle for proposal submission has closed, and an update on selected projects will be posted online for review and comment. More information on the Transit Strategic Partnerships Program can be found at www.nctcog.org/strategicpartnerships-transit.

NCTCOG Spatial Data Cooperative Program
Are you looking for highly accurate aerial photography, LiDAR, or related data products? NCTCOG’s Spatial Data Cooperative Program has provided these products to local governments, consultants, and other partners on an annual basis since 2001. Partners can sign up to participate in the current year’s cooperative to receive this data at a much lower cost than if it were purchased individually. As the number of participants in the program increases, the cost decreases due to economies of scale and volume discounting. Data acquired by past projects is available for purchase as well. The program has long-standing relationships with its vendors and is committed to producing affordable spatial data that soars above the rest. For more information, visit nctcog.org/sdcp.
