U.S. Representative Maxwell Frost announced progress on the Transit Bus Affordability Act after the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure requested the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study the increasing costs of transit bus manufacturing. This study is seen as crucial to reducing expenses and enhancing public transit.
Frost emphasized, "This is a huge win for transit riders and for communities across the country," and noted that the aim of his legislation is to address why buses are costly and explore potential solutions.
