Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) Notice of Enforcement Discretion

The PTASP regulation requires transit agencies to incorporate Safety Management System (SMS) policies and procedures as they develop safety plans to manage safety risks. The regulation set July 20, 2020 as the deadline for transit agencies to certify that they have established a compliant agency safety plan. However, this FTA notice alerts transit agencies that they will have until December 31, 2020 to comply with the regulation.
