Upcoming National RTAP/CCAM-TAC Transit Manager Peer Roundtable on Local Match Partnerships

National RTAP and the Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility Technical Assistance Center (CCAM-TAC) are co-facilitating a Peer Roundtable on Local Match on December 15, 2026 from 2:00-3:00 PM ET. This is a chance for Section 5311 and 5310 subrecipients to share best practices. Participants will learn practical steps for identifying and approaching local match and fund braiding sources for their grants and will receive resources with additional information. Come ready to share your successes!

Please note that this roundtable is just for transit managers.

Upcoming National RTAP Events

The National Transportation in Indian Country (NTICC) will take place in Chandler, AZ, November 15–19, 2026. Sign up for the Tribal Bus Roadeo on November 15. National RTAP serves on the Conference and Roadeo planning committees and is presenting and exhibiting.

National RTAP's next State RTAP Manager Peer Roundtable will be held on January 28, 2027, from 2:00-3:00 PM ET. This is an informal meeting for State RTAP Managers to discuss issues of interest to them. Topics will include RTAP scholarships for conferences that are not transit conferences, models states use to allocate 5311 funding to subrecipients, how State DOT financial and compliance reporting platforms can be best leveraged, and others. Please note that this roundtable is just for State RTAP Managers.

National RTAP and Transit Workforce Center (TWC) are co-hosting a LinkedIn Learnalong on Employee Engagement on January 29, 2027 from 1:00-2:00 PM ET. The session will feature an introductory video on successfully engaging frontline staff created by TWC, followed by a panel discussion. Bring your challenges and successes, and be prepared to participate in a robust discussion. RSVP to info@nationalrtap.org. Please note that you need to have a LinkedIn account to participate.

The next Learn About TACL training will take place on February 9, 2027 from 2:00-3:00 PM ET. The session will instruct on how to use TACL and include a Resource Feature by Al Benedict, National RTAP Technology Tools Lead, on the National RTAP Seamless Rides Best Practices Spotlight Article.

The National RTAP Books in Transit Discussion Group selected All That Road Going by A.G. Mojtabai as its next book to read. The passengers on the Greyhound bus couldn't be more different, but travelling long distances together and sharing the camaraderie of the open road, as well as unforeseen difficulties encountered in travel, bring them (and the driver) together in new ways. While the author will not be attending the meeting, she will answer questions from our readers, which will be shared during the meeting. If you have questions for the author about the book, please send them to info@nationalrtap.org. Please register for the meeting on February 16, 2027 from 2:00-3:00 PM ET.

Publications

TCRP's Legal Aspects of Transit to Airports synthesizes the legal issues that arise when planning, funding, and operating transit services at and to airports. The authors conclude that successful airport transit projects are possible through proactive planning, strong agency collaboration, and community engagement.

In Assessing the Complementarity of Microtransit and Public Transit for Sustainable Mobility: Evidence from Three California Cities, researchers from the University of California studied three microtransit programs and found that travel and wait times were lower on microtransit than on public transit. Their recommendations include providing comparative travel time information between microtransit and public transit options, highlighting faster fixed-route alternatives to requested trips, and offering transfer credits for microtransit trips that connect to transit.

NCHRP's Private Health Sector Investment in NEMT is designed to help decision makers considering potential engagement in non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT). The guide assists with determining community needs, developing action plans to address problems, engaging stakeholders, and conducting continuous evaluation and improvement activities.

The Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) published a brief on Medicaid’s Transportation Benefit and the People Who Use It. The brief discusses how Medicaid NEMT is administered and how much Medicaid spends on NEMT, and provides Medicaid NEMT user data.

NHTSA published a web page on Traffic Safety Countermeasures That Work in Rural Communities. Countermeasures include speed, alcohol-impaired driving, and other recommendations.

Databases and Tools

BizRiskGuide offers free cybersecurity templates and tools for small businesses. The seven free templates include a password policy template, a vendor security questionnaire template, and others. The eleven free tools include a website security checker, a phishing email checker, and more.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) updated its National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD) with new data on National Transit Map agencies, routes, and stops; Intercity Bus Atlas routes and stops; and additional updates. BTS also updated its National Transportation Statistics (NTS) with new data on system mileage within the U.S., ADA lift- or ramp-equipped transit buses, transportation fatalities by mode, and other statistics.

Recently updated National Transit Database (NTD) products include National Transit Summaries and Trends, NTD Time Series and Database, Voluntary Reporter Flag in the Agency Information database file, and ADA Accessibility Flag in the Facility Inventory database file.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the latest release of the MOtor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model, MOVES6. MOVES6 estimates emissions from buses and other vehicles based on the latest data and regulations and is available for use in State Implementation Plans and transportation conformity analyses. The model estimates emissions for mobile sources at the national, county, and project level for criteria air pollutants, greenhouse gases, and air toxics.

The Urban Institute provides several interactive public transportation tools on its Federal Information Funding Tracker. A map lets users see where funding was distributed by state, Core-Based Statistical Area (CBSA), and county. A chart also lets users see how funds were distributed by community characteristic, such as transportation cost, car access rate, and other factors.

Google has rolled out Gemini AI for Government Services. The artificial intelligence agent has connectors to databases including the Code of Federal Regulations and the Federal Register. It is currently available in preview mode.

CommercialBuses displays median asking prices on used buses listed by dealers, by type and model year. Each figure shows the middle half of prices under it and how many listings it comes from. Asking prices are what dealers list, not what buses sell for.

If your organization buys equipment with federal funds, 2 CFR 200.313 defines what each property record must hold and how often it is counted. InventoryQuick provides a free CSV template with every field needed to comply with this record-keeping requirement.

Opportunities

The ITS4US Deployment Accelerator will provide seed funding to up to five sites to rapidly replicate the ITS4US Heart of Iowa Regional Transit Agency’s Health Connector project.

Legislation

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is proposing to revise the Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Programs using Urine and Oral Fluid. The proposed revisions for urine will clarify the types of laboratories certified to conduct testing, change invalid specimen criteria, revise the initial test batch quality control requirements for laboratories and facilities, and allow a Medical Review Officer to authorize use of a biomarker test for a specimen with an invalid result. The proposed revisions for oral fluid will revise the initial test batch quality control requirements for laboratories and allow a split testing laboratory to test for any HHS-authorized biomarker. Comments are due December 28, 2026.

H.R.1721, the Critical Infrastructure Manufacturing Feasibility Act, became law on October 20, 2026. The Act requires the Department of Commerce to study and report on products that are in high demand across the critical infrastructure sectors. The study must identify the products in high demand that are being imported due to manufacturing, material, or supply chain constraints and analyze the costs, benefits, and feasibility of manufacturing those products in the United States.

NHTSA is proposing to amend Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment. The first proposed changes would amend the test voltage specification for integral beam type headlamps and remove requirements that apply to vertical headlamp arrangements.
