New FTA Transportation Coordination Guidance

Published on: March 28, 2022

FTA has posted guidance clarifying coordination on human services transportation on a new Transportation Coordination webpage. Coordinated transportation involves multiple entities working together to deliver one or more components of a transportation service to increase capacity.

The Transportation Coordination Guidance aims to reduce overlap between the 130 CCAM programs across nine agencies that may fund human services transportation and incentivize collaboration by clarifying eligible reporting into the National Transit Database (NTD). This new guidance addresses the following topics as they relate to NTD reporting:

• Definition of public transportation
• Paratransit
• Charter service
• Incidental use of transit assets
• Trip brokering
