Summary

The bill changes 49 U.S.C. §5336 so that 1.5% of unfunded transit dollars are directed to urban areas with populations between 200,000 and 999,999 that meet or exceed industry‑average performance measures. It creates a new formula that allocates those funds based on how many performance categories each eligible city matches compared with large cities of one million or more. The change aims to reward and support midsize transit‑intensive cities.
