TRIP Act

The Transit in Parks (TRIP) Act aims to reduce traffic congestion and environmental impact in America’s national parks, wildlife refuges, and Bureau of Land Management lands by expanding alternative transportation options. The bill directs the Department of Transportation and the Department of the Interior to work together to fund and develop projects such as shuttle buses, rail systems, and bicycle paths in and around these federal lands. For the public, this would mean easier access to popular natural sites, fewer parking struggles, and better-preserved landscapes through the reduction of private vehicle emissions and noise.
