Active Transportation for Public Lands Act

This bill would require the U.S. Secretary of Transportation to set aside at least 5 percent of the money authorized each year for the Federal lands transportation program and the Federal lands access program for active transportation. Active transportation includes building, planning, and designing trails, sidewalks, bike infrastructure, signals, lighting, and other safety features for people walking, biking, or using other nonmotorized travel. It also covers projects that give safe routes to non-drivers such as children, older adults, and people with disabilities, projects to meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements, and turning abandoned railroad corridors into trails.
