Eight corridors, every 15 minutes: what the STAR Plan actually maps
noted Sep 1, 2026
The Sunshine Transit Advancement Resolution — written by the grassroots group Sunrise Movement Orlando and modeled on Miami-Dade’s SMART Plan — maps rapid transit onto eight high-volume Orange County corridors: Colonial, Semoran, Silver Star, the Sunshine Corridor between the airport and Disney, International, Orange Blossom, Kirkman, and the existing SunRail lines, two of them reaching Ocoee. “Rapid transit” is defined as service every 15 minutes or better with dedicated lanes and signal priority; the funding mechanism is tax-increment financing districts within a half-mile of each corridor, capturing property-tax growth for 25 years into a Citizens’ Rapid Transit Trust Fund. The Board of County Commissioners’ first major vote is set for September 29, 2026.
