Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s, the federal government has provided a large share of the nation's capital investment in urban mass transportation. Much of this investment has come through the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) New Starts program, which helps pay for certain rail, bus, and trolley projects through full-funding grant agreements. In the last 8 years, this program has provided state and local agencies with over $6 billion to help design and construct transit projects throughout the country. The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), 1 enacted in 1998, authorized $6 billion in guaranteed funding for the New Starts program through fiscal year 2003. Although the level of New Starts funding is higher than it has ever been, the demand for these resources is also extremely high. TEA-21 identified over 190 projects nationwide as eligible to compete for New Starts funding. FTA was directed to prioritize projects for funding by evaluating, rating, and recommending potential projects on the basis of specific financial and project justification criteria. Furthermore, TEA-21 required FTA to issue regulations for the evaluation and rating process.

Nicole Clowers and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Starts program is an important source of new capital investment in mass transportation. The Fed. Transit Admin. (FTA) must prioritize transit projects for funding by evaluating, rating, and recommending projects on the basis of specific financial commitment and project justification criteria, such as cost-effectiveness, economic dev¿t. effects, land use, and environ. benefits. To be eligible for fed. funding, a project must advance through the different project dev¿t. phases of the New Starts program, including alternatives analysis, preliminary engineering, and final design. This testimony discusses the: (1) key challenges associated with the New Starts program; and (2) options that could help expedite project dev¿t. in the New Starts program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many states, cities, and localities are building or planning mass transit projects to meet the nation's transportation needs. The New Starts program-administered by the U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) Federal Transit Administration (FTA)-is an important source of new capital investment in mass transportation, providing grants to project sponsors (e.g., state and local government authorities), for the construction of major transit facilities. FTA uses contractors-known as project management oversight contractors (PMOC) and financial management oversight contractors (FMOC)-to help oversee the planning, construction, and financing of major capital projects, including those funded under the New Starts program. This report, as mandated by law, discusses (1) how FTA uses PMOCs and FMOCs to oversee New Starts projects and how the agency procures, monitors, and evaluates the contractors' services; and (2) the benefits of FTA's oversight approach and the challenges FTA faces in conducting its oversight. GAO reviewed applicable statutes, FTA guidance, regulations, and budget data, and interviewed DOT officials, project sponsors, contractors, and industry stakeholders. GAO is not making any recommendations in this report. DOT officials generally agreed with GAO's findings and provided technical comments, which...

Book excerpt: The New Starts program is an important source of new capital investment in mass transportation. To be eligible for federal funding, a project must advance through the different project development phases of the New Starts program, including alternatives analysis, preliminary engineering, and final design. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) evaluates projects as a condition for advancement into each project development phase of the program. FTA has acted recently to streamline the process. This report discusses the (1) time it has generally taken for projects to move through the New Starts process and what Congress and FTA have done to expedite the process and (2) options that exist to expedite the process. In response to a legislative mandate, GAO reviewed statutes, FTA guidance and regulations, and project data. GAO also interviewed Department of Transportation (DOT) officials, projects sponsors, and industry stakeholders.
