Active Transportation for Public Lands Act
This bill requires federal agencies managing public lands to allocate at least 5 percent of their annual transportation funding toward active transportation projects. These projects include building trails for pedestrians and bicyclists, improving safety infrastructure for non-drivers, and converting abandoned railroad corridors into recreational paths. The legislation directly affects federal land management programs and aims to expand safe transportation options for people of all ages and abilities. By mandating this funding set-aside, the bill ensures consistent investment in non-motorized transportation infrastructure across federal lands.
