Each committee reports to APTA's Board of Directors through its elected vice chair. In addition, special task forces are formed on an as-needed basis.
APTA committee membership is open to the transit board members and management personnel of all APTA members, both operating and business. Committee membership is available in the following areas:
APTA committees are active in all areas of concern to the industry, and are grouped under the following categories defined by the responsible APTA vice chairs, and first vice chair.
