The safety plans were required to be completed by July 20th, following a Federal Transit Administration (FTA) rule issued in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) Final Rule requires all agencies that receive FTA\u2019s Urbanized Area Formula Grants to set safety performance targets in a Safety Plan that is reviewed and certified every year.
