Audit Initiated on the Effect of FTA's Charter Bus Service Regulation on Transit Services
Project ID:
10M3006M000
Summary
The Office of Inspector General is initiating an audit of the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA's) charter bus regulation. This regulation generally prohibits a transit agency that receives Federal transit grant funds from providing charter service, such as shuttle buses to sporting events, when a private charter operator is interested in providing the same service.
This audit will assess: (1) the impact of the charter bus regulation on charter services related to specific events and markets; and (2) evaluate FTA's oversight of the charter service regulation.
