The purpose of this project is to update the Selected Studies in Transportation Law, Volume 5, 2014 Supplement on Transit Law (2014 Supplement), except for Section 10, Civil Rights, which will be addressed by a separate RFP. Since publication of the 2014 Supplement, there have been a number of changes in transportation law. The goal of the project is to provide a legal primer on the myriad of legal issues encountered in a transit law practice. When updating the Supplement, the researcher shall analyze and incorporate any legal implications that the researcher identifies from review of TRB’s 2019, Critical Issues in Transportation. Where legal research digests may have addressed an issue in Volume 5, the researcher shall reference the digest and incorporate any information from the digest believed to be relevant while maintaining the intent of the 2014 Supplement. If there are no significant changes in the topics addressed by the Supplement, the researcher will only be required to shepardize cases (look for changes in statutes or rules and guidance documents). The following is a nonexclusive list of topics that have been identified as needing to be updated by this project: Transit Related Governmental Institutions, Procurement, Buy America, Safety, Transit Asset Management, and HIPAA. |
