VTA is an independent special district responsible for bus and light rail operations, congestion management, specific highway improvement projects and countywide transportation planning. As such, VTA is both an accessible transit provider and multi-modal transportation planning organization involved with transit, highways, roadways, bikeways, and pedestrian facilities.

VTA's bus fleet of 435 buses serves a 346 square mile urbanized service area and operates approximately 18 million miles annually. The 42.2-mile light rail system is served by 98 rail cars and 5 historic trolley cars and operates approximately 2.2 million miles annually. VTA employs approximately 2,050 people, of whom approximately 650 are administrative, clerical and professional positions and 1,400 are operators and maintenance positions. There are four operating/maintenance facilities located within Santa Clara County. The administrative headquarters is located separately from these four facilities.
