Summary
The Modal Parity in Permitting Act amends federal transit and passenger rail funding provisions to clarify and expand the ability of grant recipients to acquire real property interests for transportation projects. The bill broadens the definition of allowable property acquisitions from "right-of-way" to "real property interests" and permits recipients to purchase, lease, or otherwise secure property before environmental reviews are completed, though physical development must wait until reviews are finished. The Federal Transit Administration is required to update guidance within six months to implement these changes.
