Abstract:This report provides information on projects funded under Chapter 53 of Title 49 Section 5312 as amended by Federal public transportation law, Section 3008, and notes proposed allocation of appropriated funds for FY 2017. Consistent with FY 2015, FTA focused eligible projects in three strategic priority areas of mobility, asset management and asset innovation, and safety. Projects in these areas promoted public transportation innovation to improve operations, infrastructure, and the travelers’ experience. For active projects in FY 2016, twenty-four percent ($36.8 million) were associated with safety; fifty-nine percent ($91.5 million) were associated with asset management and asset innovation; thirteen percent ($21.1 million) were associated with mobility; and four percent ($5.9 million) were for supportive services across all research areas. In 2016, FTA’s Office of Research, Demonstration, and Innovation managed a total research portfolio of $155,413,775.
