Plans and Programs

Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan

FAST has developed a safety plan that includes processes and procedures to implement the principles of Safety Management Systems (SMS).  The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) published the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) Final Rule on July 19, 2018 in an effort to improve public transportation safety by guiding transit agencies to more effectively and proactively manage safety risks in their systems. 

Urban transit operators are required to review, update, and certify their plans annually.  The FAST PTASP identifies, assesses, and seeks to mitigate risks.  It also sets forth strategies to minimize exposure to hazards, improve FAST’s safety training program, establishes safety performance targets.

Service Standards & Policies

Service standards and guidelines serve as useful policy tools that reflect the mission and goals of the transit organization.  These define attributes of service design and delivery, as well as, create an objective set of criteria under which existing services, proposed alterations to services and prospective new services are evaluated.  Service standards also provide a basis for the open and equitable allocation of budget-limited service resources in accordance with the Title VI and Environmental Justice requirements.
