S.2945

Safe Transit Accountability Act authorizes the accountable executive to resolve disputes within safety committees.

The Safe Transit Accountability Act amends title 49 of the United States Code to empower the accountable executive of a safety committee to resolve disputes. This executive, who has ultimate responsibility for the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan and the Transit Asset Management Plan, will also serve as the sole tiebreaker in any dispute resolution procedures. This change aims to streamline decision-making processes within safety committees.
