Sign up for email updates on this topic.
From 2005 through mid-2012 the authorizing legislation guiding FTA’s programs was entitled the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). In July 2012 a new authorization was enacted entitled the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) that changed several aspects of FTA’s primary grant program for funding locally planned, implemented and operated major transit capital investments, including rapid rail, light rail, bus rapid transit, commuter rail, and ferries.
