Sixteen U.S. transportation industry stakeholders have written to U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, urging the creation of an Office of Multimodal Freight Infrastructure and Policy within the Department of Transportation. They argue that such an office is necessary to address supply chain challenges and improve coordination among federal agencies, as mandated by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Currently, there is no formal structure in place for this office, leading to ad-hoc coordination between departments.
