Intelligent Transportation Society of America Initial Analysis of America’s Transportation Infrastructure (ATIA) Act of 2019 (as of July 30, 2019)
The U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee approved July 30, 21 to 0, a substitute amendment to its surface transportation bill, S. 2302 (116). The America’s Transportation Infrastructure (ATIA) Act of 2019 authorizes $287 billion from the Highway Trust Fund over five years for highway programs, which over 90% ($259 billion) is distributed to states by formula funding, thereby continuing the FAST Act program structure. ATIA maintains FAST Act intelligent transportation systems technology as eligible activities under several federal-aid funding programs.
