 Welcome back, listeners, to your weekly DOT dispatch. This week’s top headline: U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy unveiled the first-ever National Advanced Air Mobility Strategy on December 17th, paving the way for electric vertical takeoff vehicles and drone deliveries to transform how we fly and ship goods.

Duffy’s team is moving fast with sweeping policy shifts. Back in January, he issued orders rolling back prior regulations, mandating strict cost-benefit analyses for all grants and rules—ditching environmental and equity priorities for economic wins and family impacts. DOT announced $33 million in university grants on December 19th to spark innovation in safety and efficiency, not what they call DEI or green scams. They’re also pouring $2 billion into 2,400 American-made transit buses across 45 states. In trucking, FMCSA dropped the speed limiter mandate and is overhauling safety tracking into just two categories: vehicle maintenance and driver issues, with a full rollout mid-year. Plus, a pro-trucker package enforces English-language rules for drivers.

These hit hard: American families get safer, cheaper travel with projects prioritizing noise reduction and local jobs. Businesses face tougher Buy America rules but easier funding for profitable ventures—no more endless subsidies. States like Chicago risk millions if safety plans falter, forcing alignment or budget crunches. “The Department will prioritize projects that increase safety, efficiency, and improve the travel experience for American families,” Duffy said.

Data shows 165 transit projects funded, delivering real upgrades. Watch for grant amendments by February and trucking number transitions by October 1st. Citizens, submit input on bridge reconstructions via DOT’s site.
