ATIIP Reauthorization and Improvement Act Active Transportation...
To reauthorize the active transportation infrastructure investment program, and for other purposes.
HB8565, also known as the Active Transportation Infrastructure Investment Program Reauthorization and Improvement Act, seeks to renew and enhance the Active Transportation Infrastructure Investment Program. This program supports investments in infrastructure for walking, biking, and other forms of active transportation. By reauthorizing the program, the bill aims to continue funding and improving these critical transportation options to promote health, reduce traffic congestion, and enhance environmental sustainability.
The bill would affect communities across the country by providing continued financial support for projects that improve pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. This includes funding for sidewalks, bike lanes, trails, and other amenities that encourage people to walk and bike instead of driving. These improvements can make our communities healthier, safer, and more environmentally friendly.
HB8565 was introduced on April 29, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure for further review. This committee will evaluate the bill, potentially hold hearings, and make recommendations for the next steps in the legislative process. The bill is currently in its initial stages, and no further action has been taken yet.
