Investing in our transportation infrastructure and supporting 10 billion passenger trips every year is essential to our mobility, our economic development, our air quality, our overall quality of life, our ability to create jobs, and our global competitiveness. The benefits of investing are clear. The fact is we are not investing enough. In 2009, a Federal Transit Administration report found that of the seven largest rail systems, including New Jersey Transit, and the systems represented by two of our witnesses today, SEPTA and MBTA, they had a $50 billion backlog in projects-$50 billion just to make sure that the systems were in reasonably good condition, not state-of-the-art but adequate. Investing in our transit systems is not a luxury. It is a necessity. It is a win-win-win that creates good, family wage jobs. It makes our infrastructure safer, more efficient, more reliable, and it keeps us competitive.

Assesses the level of investment required to bring all of our nation¿s public transportation (transit) systems into a state of good repair. While the seven agencies included in the 2009 Rail Modernization Study are responsible for a majority of the nation¿s transit assets, the Study¿s findings emphasize the need for a more comprehensive understanding of transit reinvestment needs. This 2010 National State of Good Repair Assessment evaluates the level of investment required to bring all U.S. transit assets to a state of good repair. The current national SGR backlog is about $77.7 billion. An annual average of $14.4 billion in normal replacement expenditures would be required to keep that backlog from getting larger. Charts and tables.
