Increased Transparency for Rail Passenger Safety Audits
New rules enhance transparency in safety audits of passenger trains. Citizens can expect Congress to be better informed about rail safety, potentially leading to quicker responses to identified issues. This, in turn, could result in safer train travel.
Key points
Rail authorities must notify Congress within 10 business days of starting a safety audit of intercity or commuter passenger trains.
Audit findings, including identified defects and recommendations, must be submitted to Congress within 90 days of completion.
This information will also go to Congress members representing states where the audited rail services operate.
