Ten
Years of Progress:
Commemorating a Decade of Transportation Reform
This
December marks the ten year anniversary of the Intermodal Surface
Transportation Efficiency Act. Signed
into law by President George Bush on December 18, 1991, the landmark
transportation law launched a decade of transportation investments built
on principles of improved performance, economic efficiency, environmental
stewardship, and community involvement.
The
Surface Transportation Policy Project and the Ten Years of Progress Event
Committee are commemorating this anniversary by hosting an awards dinner
on December 12 in Washington, DC and honoring two of ISTEA’s greatest
champions – Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan and U.S. Transportation
Secretary Norman Y. Mineta. Co-sponsored
by more than 25 organizations including the U.S. Conference of Mayors, the
American Public Transportation Association, the American Association of
State Highway Transportation Officials, and the Transportation Funders
Group, the awards dinner will be followed by the declaration of a New
Transportation Charter and an Advocates Roundtable on December 13.
Please
join us on December 12th in Washington, DC or in your local community the
following week, to celebrate how far our nation has come in improving
transportation and quality of life over the last decade.

local events taking place between December 13 and 21, visit STPP’s
