Metro Area Transit, or MAT, is the local mass transportation provider in Omaha, Nebraska. MAT currently operates around 135 buses throughout the Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area,[1] including the communities of Bellevue, Ralston, LaVista and Papillion in Nebraska, as well as Council Bluffs, Iowa. Operated by the Omaha Transit Authority, a governmental subdivision of the State of Nebraska, MAT's board consists of a five member board appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the Omaha City Council as well as the Douglas County Commissioners. The first board was sworn in and took office on May 30, 1972.[2] The agency receives funds from local, state and federal sources.[3] The city has equipped its buses with bicycle carriers, catching up with neighboring cities of Des Moines, Iowa, Denver, Colorado and Kansas City, Missouri.[4]
