I. Overview 

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to the repealed fixed guideway 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
