The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (‘‘MAP–21’’), Public Law 112–141, 126 Stat. 405 (2012), made significant changes to the Federal transit laws that are applicable across all of FTA’s financial assistance programs. These changes further several important goals of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Most notably, MAP–21 grants FTA new authority to oversee and regulate the safety of public transportation systems in the United States and authorizes a new Public Transportation Safety Program at 49 U.S.C. 5329. MAP–21 also establishes a new National Transit Asset Management system at 49 U.S.C. 5326 including a new requirement for transit asset management plans, performance measures and annual target setting based on a definition of ‘‘state of good repair’’, and additional technical assistance from FTA.

MAP–21 also establishes the new State of Good Repair (SGR) Grants program at 49 U.S.C. 5337. In contrast to the repealed fixed guideway modernization program, the purpose of the SGR Grants program is the maintenance, replacement, and rehabilitation of capital assets, along with the development and implementation of transit asset management plans.

These three new sections—section 5326 transit asset management, section 5329 public transportation safety program, and section 5337 SGR Grants program—enhance the process by which a transit provider evaluates the SGR needs of capital assets and finances necessary replacement or rehabilitation, as informed by conditions of capital assets and safety risk priorities. A transit provider’s safety and asset assessment informs its asset management process, which informs budgeting and project
