State Transportation Act

Connecticut · 13B · §§ 13b-1 to 13b-57a · 159 sections

Overview

The State Transportation Act organizes Connecticut's transportation agency and the framework through which the state plans and delivers transportation projects. It sets out the department's personnel provisions — hiring and recruitment for engineering and maintenance positions, employee transfers, and the treatment of employment applications — and creates or continues a set of advisory and oversight bodies, including a transportation authority, a public transportation commission, an aeronautics commission, a bicycle and pedestrian advisory board, and a policy advisory council. It further directs long-range and master transportation planning, the assessment of projects and modes of transportation, public reporting on state-wide transportation goals, and a detailed procedure for prequalifying, evaluating, and selecting outside consultants, alongside the commissioner's general powers to issue regulations, conduct investigations and hearings, and maintain official records.
