Background: Transit Asset

monitor and manage public
transportation assets, improve safety,
increase reliability and performance,
and establish performance measures in
order to help agencies keep their
systems operating smoothly and
efficiently. FTA’s TAM rule requires
transit agencies to develop a compliant
TAM plan, set performance targets for
capital assets, create data and narrative
reports on performance measures, and
coordinate with their planning partners.
Transit agencies are required to submit
their performance measures and targets
to the National Transit Database.
Respondents: All recipients and subrecipients of Chapter 53 funds that own,
operate, or manage public transportation
capital assets.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 2,915.
