Transit Asset Management Events

What's New

    • Virtual discussion forums and in-person peer exchanges will also be offered beginning in Spring 2023. Discussion forums will be standalone, virtual events for ~10 participants to present briefly and talk about a predetermined topic. Announcements will be sent to advertise these events and interested parties will be asked to submit a brief application to participate. Peer exchanges will be in-person, 1.5 day events involving a small number of agencies, and will take place onsite at one of the participating agencies. An announcement will be sent when the TAM Program begin accepting requests for peer exchanges.  
    • Sign up here to subscribe to receive correspondence from the TAM Program, including announcements for peer learning offerings. 
    • FTA will host the 14th TAM Roundtable as an in-person event on Sunday, July 9, 2023, in Boston, MA. The TAM Roundtable will coincide with TRB’s National Conference on Transportation Asset Management and will bring together participants from across the country who are directly involved in the management of transit capital assets. The TAM Roundtable is a separate event, which will require separate registration. More details to come at a later date.
       

FTA and its partners have held a number of events associated with the TAM rule. Click on the headings below to find materials from specific events. Visit the TAM Resource Table for additional materials from past events.

Roundtables

FTA’s TAM Roundtable draws transit agency representatives focused on managing transit capital assets. The roundtable encourages participants to learn best practices from their peers.

Peer Exchanges & Focus Groups

FTA’s Peer Exchanges and Focus Groups bring together transit agencies and other stakeholders from around the country to discuss TAM plans and other aspects of transit asset management. The peer exchanges pair agencies with common characteristics that allow for effective peer to peer knowledge sharing on specific asset management topics.
