Rural Transit Day is July 16, 2024. We will be holding a Rural Transit Day Chat on July 16, 2024 from 2:00-3:00 PM ET, co-moderated by Stephanie Lewis of Florida RTAP, Caitlin Musselman from the National Aging and Disability Transportation Center (NADTC), Kevin Wassom from Michigan Department of Transportation, John Andoh from Redding Area Bus Authority, and National RTAP staff. If you would like to RSVP, please contact info@nationalrtap.org.

Right before the Chat, from 1:00-2:00 PM ET on X, we will be holding a Rural Transit Day Prequel, where we will show all the National RTAP 2023 Photo Contest winners from our This is Rural Transit Photo Contest. No need to RSVP for this segment - you can view the photos at the Rural Transit Day Chat link.

Each year we are adding to our Rural Transit Day Time Capsule. This year we are collecting transit tokens. If you can send us one (even if you no longer use tokens), please mail it to Cara Marcus, National RTAP, 5 Wheeling Avenue, Woburn, MA 01801.

Take the Rural Transit Day Pledge to show your commitment to rural transit. As of this writing, we are up to 283 pledges. Let's see if we can get 300.

We have a new Rural Transit Day Proclamation Template. Visit the Rural Transit Day web page and click on the second button in the right-hand column (under the Take the Pledge button). The template will download to your computer. These can be shared with your elected official if you would like them to proclaim Rural Transit Day.

The National Transit Institute (NTI) has posted many new in-person and virtual courses that will be held over the next few months.

FHWA is offering a new, free, online Fundamentals of Community Impact Assessment course through the National Highway Institute (FHWA-NHI-142096) that explores the iterative process of evaluating the effects of a transportation action on a community and its quality of life.

The National Association of Development Organizations' (NADO) report on Public Involvement to Support Planning and Environment Linkages in Rural and Small Metropolitan Areas provides guidance, best practices, and case examples.

NCHRP's Consequential Damages Provisions in Construction Contracts: Legal Issues explores the issues associated with consequential damages provisions in construction contracts, and it provides guidance to those drafting such contracts. Issues to consider include contract type, limitation of liability, the scope of consequential damages, and consequential damages carve-outs. The resource includes sample consequential damages clauses.

TCRP's On-Street Bus Operations Management provides an overview of the current practices in real-time management of street operations for transit agencies. The researchers found that the major benefit of the new technologies in managing bus operations is the ability to communicate more information and more accurate real-time information to riders and staff.

In the National Center for Mobility Management's (NCMM) Mobility Management State Network Implementation Guide, NCMM staff researched state examples to provide descriptive information about four state mobility management programs across four FTA regions. The guide is intended to be utilized by organizations and agencies as a tool to implement similar models in their regions.

The National Aging and Disability Transportation Center (NADTC) published a new blog post, 5 Tips for Providing Transportation to Family Caregivers. This blog highlights how caregivers can include transportation options as part of their support system.

A new National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report says that state and local authorities, employers, and others should adopt a new definition for “Long COVID” — that it is an infection-associated chronic condition that occurs after COVID-19 infection and is present for at least three months as a continuous, relapsing and remitting, or progressive disease state that affects one or more organ systems. 

The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) offers a Bus Maintenance Facility Program/Space Calculator as part of its Recommended Practice on Architectural and Engineering Design for a Transit Operating and Maintenance Facility. The downloadable spreadsheet is at the bottom of the webpage. It allows users to quantify rough square footages needed to accommodate a design for a bus maintenance facility.

The Joint Office of Energy and Transportation's Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Map shows electric vehicle charging stations in the United States by charging level, access type, station status, and other data points.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) updated its data on Bus Fuel Consumption and Travel in its National Transportation Statistics. The chart shows vehicle miles traveled vs. fuel consumed for the years 2000-2022.

The Tools page developed through NCHRP Project 20-24(95): Ensuring Essential Capability for the Future Transportation Agency provides an index of available tools, including links to web portals, software tools, online information repositories, and other digital information, to help agencies carry out a variety of capability-building actions.

Our Town is the National Endowment of the Arts' (NEA) creative placemaking grants program.

Applications are due to grants.gov on August 1, 2024 and to NEA on August 15, 2024.

The Accessible Transportation Resource Center (ATRC) provides a Community of Practice to develop and implement solutions that make transportation more accessible for people with disabilities and older adults.

NHTSA is proposing a new collection of information that supports research addressing safety-related aspects of drivers’ interactions with driving automation systems. Comments must be submitted by July 11, 2024.

NHTSA also issued new vehicle fuel economy standards on June 7, 2024. The new standards aim to reduce pollution and save costs. While this applies primarily to cars and light trucks, it covers some transit vehicles as well.

Effective July 15, 2024, all state driver's licensing agencies will be required to use the most recent edition of the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, Inc.'s Commercial Driver's License Information System State Procedures Manual to follow standard administrative practices required by the states. Petitions for reconsideration of this final rule must be submitted to the FMCSA Administrator no later than July 15, 2024.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to amend its Financial Assistance Regulations to establish conflict of interest and conflict of commitment policies and requirements for non-federal entities applying for or receiving financial assistance awards from the DOE. Comments must be received by August 19, 2024.

Effective July 17, 2024, FMCSA will amend regulations governing the annual registration fees that participating states collect from motor carriers (including transit buses) for the Unified Carrier Registration Plan and Agreement. The fees for the 2025 registration year will be increased between $9 to $9,000 per entity, depending on the applicable fee bracket.

All event times listed in Eastern Time. Subtract 1 hour for Central Time, 2 for Mountain Time, 3 for Pacific Time, 4 for Alaska, and 5 or 6 for Hawaii (depending on daylight savings time).
