The National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) is a coalition of the largest cities and transit agencies in North America; hubs of economic activity and population that are the site of some of our greatest transportation challenges and solutions. NACTO supports infrastructure policies and transportation projects that align with our core values: safety, sustainability, and equity in transportation choices, and accessibility for people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

We believe that transportation infrastructure should serve the public good and that the public sector should ensure the wise use of taxpayer dollars in building roadways, bridges, and transit.

1. Promote safe transportation systems
2. Increase equitable transportation access for all people and all modes
3. Support sustainable funding and financing for transportation projects
4. Improve transportation project selection and bring project decisions closer to the taxpayer, at the local level
5. Promote vibrant mobility that has a smaller climate change footprint
6. Manage new and emerging mobility technology

Managing Mobility Data

Managing Mobility Data, a joint product of the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) and the International Municipal Lawyers Association (IMLA), sets out principles and best practices for city agencies and private sector partners to share, protect, and manage data to meet transportation planning and regulatory goals in a secure and appropriate manner.

NACTO Policy Statement on Automated Vehicles

NACTO supports a future transportation system that provides a sustainable, accessible, and affordable backbone to the strong cities at the center of our 21st century economy; policy at every level of government should address head-on the destructive potential for increased traffic, emissions from additional driving, and on-street congestion that could easily result from automated vehicle technology.
