Caltrans System Investment Strategy (CSIS)
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is committed to leading climate action and advancing social equity in the transportation sector set forth by the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) Climate Action Plan for Transportation Infrastructure (CAPTI, 2021). The CAPTI supports the California Transportation Plan (CTP) 2050 (2021) goals that works to meet the State’s ambitious climate change mandates, targets, and policies set forth by Executive Order (EO) N-19-19 and N-79-20, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
Caltrans is in a significant leadership role to carry out meaningful measures that advance state’s goals and priorities through the development and implementation of the Caltrans System Investment Strategy (CSIS). The CSIS, which implements one of CAPTI’s key actions, is envisioned to be an investment framework through a data and performance-driven approach that guides transportation investments and decisions. This framework includes methodologies and processes for how Caltrans should invest billions of dollars of highly competitive fund programs that will address transportation deficiencies while also achieving the CAPTI Guiding Principles.
