FTA Administrator Peter Rogoff addresses the CTAA EXPO.

Just six days on the job, FTA Administrator Peter Rogoff traveled from Washington, D.C., to Providence, R.I., to make his first public address as administrator to CTAA's annual EXPO.

Mr. Rogoff greatly impressed the overflow crowd at the EXPO's opening luncheon with his address and his commitment as administrator to working with CTAA and its members on reauthorization and improved public and community transportation.
