The TDA Claim worksheets consist of transit operating and capital expenditures, revenue, fleet inventory, operational and performance data, and future transit operational and capital projections for determining compliance with triennial performance objectives established by SJCOG, as well as streets and roads and bicycle and pedestrian projects.
