Abstract
The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 or ISTEA (pronounced “Ice Tea”) ushers in a new era of federal transportation policy.1 Unlike the narrow funding categories and one-sided emphasis of the federal-aid high-way programs, ISTEA offers a broad range of funding alternatives and embraces far more than roads and automobiles. Now mobility is the measure, and transit has taken on new stature in the competition for federal dollars.
