As a standing committee of the Transportation Policy Board (TPB), the Transportation Operators Committee (TOC) is the primary forum for discussing and resolving issues of common concern and/or interest to the public transportation operators in the four-county Puget Sound region. The TOC includes representatives of the public transit agencies in each county, the Regional Transit Authority (Sound Transit), the City of Seattle, and the state Department of Transportation’s Ferry Planning Office, Urban Mobility Office, and Transportation and Rail Division. The TOC meets on a regular basis, at least quarterly.

In October 2009, PSRC facilitated the update to the Memorandum of Agreement (MOU) among PSRC, the local public transit agencies and Sound Transit. This MOU satisfies federal regulations requiring such an agreement between PSRC, in its role as the designated metropolitan planning organization, and the local public transit agencies and Sound Transit (as local and regional public transit agency), in order to specify cooperative procedures for conducting transportation planning (including corridor and subarea studies) and programming.
