Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility (CCAM)
Transportation touches almost all part of peoples’ lives. This fact is recognized by the many federally funded programs that fund transportation services in one way or another. In 2014, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) identified 80 of these federal programs spread among 8 federal agencies.
The federal Coordinating Council on Access and Mobility (CCAM), formed in 2004, is tasked with coordinating transportation across federal agencies.
This video highlights CCAM’s importance and the essential work that its members have already completed. Watch to learn about the history of CCAM, the overarching mission, and what CCAM has already done across the country.
