U.S. Federal Transit Administration International Mass Transportation Program
Authorized by the June 1998 Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), the FTA International Mass Transportation Program (IMTP) helps the U.S. transit industry to access international markets and furthers the improvement of U.S. transit by highlighting overseas innovations. To support Trade Promotion, IMTP partners with the transit industry to help build U.S. global trade competitiveness by organizing international business workshops, providing training on international commerce standards and regulations, producing resource guides on international business, and conducting trade missions with the U.S. Departments of Commerce and Transportation. IMPT’s Technology Transfer, efforts provide improved access to international data bases and create a two-way flow of information between the United States and other countries. Aided by the International Public Transit Tenders List, FTA works to enhance America’s participation in the mainstream global transit marketplace by informing U.S. transit manufacturers and suppliers about contract opportunities overseas. IMPT’s Human Capacity Building program provides classroom instruction, practical training, and exchange tours involving U.S. and foreign transit professionals.
