Articles, reports, legislation, and informational issuances on the ISTEA (P.L. 102-240), with a few items pertaining to its follow-up legislation, the Transportation Equity Act (TEA-21) of 1998 (P.L. 105-178). The ISTEA authorized federal funding for a variety of surface transportation options beyond highways, with major decision-making authority residing with state agencies and metropolitan planning organizations. It aimed to achieve a balanced approach to investment in highways, bridges, transit systems, advanced technologies, driver and vehicle safety programs, and congestion mitigation/air quality programs. Contents include the text of P.L. 102-240; implementation guidelines issued by the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Transit Administration, and Mn/DOT (1992); fact sheets on ISTEA; a report on ISTEA year 3; and analyses of the act's provisions and effects.
