Informational report for discussion

BACKGROUND:
Each year the Communications & Marketing Office, in coordination with our advertising agency, R&R Partners, conducts a Benchmark Survey to the public throughout UTA’s service area. The survey effort typically starts with focus groups, followed by a telephone survey. As part of the 2022-2023 Benchmark Survey, virtual focus groups were conducted in Fall 2022, followed by the telephone survey in January-February 2023.
The Benchmark Survey is a broad survey designed to guide staff’s communications and marketing messaging strategy by assessing:
• Overall public perception of UTA as an organization
• Public perception of UTA’s services
• High-level indicators of why people ride / don’t ride
• High-level indicators of the top things that would encourage people to ride
• Do people see / remember hearing messages about UTA
• Where do people typically see / remember messages about UTA

DISCUSSION:
The team will make a presentation to the Board of Trustees about the key results from the 2022-2023 Benchmark Survey. Staff will be prepared to answer questions from the Board of Trustees.
