City of Mesquite
City of Mesquite in the National Transit Database: ridership, operating cost, subsidy per ride, safety incidents, fleet age and fuel use.
City of Mesquite reports to the National Transit Database, but is not yet in the annual files most of this site is built from.
Ridership, cost per ride and the rest of this site's usual figures come from files that begin in 2015 and cover agencies that file them. What is below comes from FTA's longer time series, which keep every reporter's funding, fleet, capital spending and safety record back to 1991. The agency is left out of every ranking on this site.
Who pays for it
Federal, state and local funding, 1993 to 2024
Operating and capital money together, in the dollars of each year. Fares are not in this file — FTA took them out of the funding series in 2022 — so "directly generated" here means advertising, concessions, park and ride and taxes the agency levies itself.
Capital spending, 1994 to 2014
In 2024 dollars, so the years can be compared.
How the fleet has aged, 1993 to 2014
Average vehicle age, weighted across every mode the agency runs
A rising line is not automatically bad and a falling one is not automatically good: a fleet gets younger the year an agency takes delivery, and older every year it does not. What the shape shows is whether replacement is steady or comes in bursts.
Vehicles, and how many are accessible
Active revenue vehicles against those meeting the ADA standard
The longer record, 2008 to 2011
FTA's threshold-adjusted time series, which reaches back further than the incident file and is built to be compared across years
NTD's reporting threshold changed in 2010, 2015 and 2023. FTA publishes this series adjusted for those changes so the years can be read against each other; the unadjusted counts jump by a third in 2015 on the rule change alone.
