Bill Summary

Amending Title 74 (Transportation) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in sustainable mobility options, further providing for operating program.

AI Summary

This bill amends Pennsylvania's transportation laws to establish additional performance criteria for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA). Specifically, the bill requires the state transportation department to create new minimum system performance standards for SEPTA, focusing on improving fare evasion prevention, public-private transportation partnerships, and bus routes. The department must develop these criteria by comparing SEPTA's performance to its own historical performance and to peer transportation authorities. If SEPTA fails to meet these new performance standards, the bill mandates that a specific procedure outlined in a related subsection will be applied. The new requirements are designed to enhance the efficiency and accountability of SEPTA's transportation services. The bill will take effect 60 days after its enactment, giving the transportation department time to develop and implement the new performance criteria.
