Title: ●Elimination of Route Designation Requirement for Motor Carriers Transporting Passengers Over Regular Routes
Abstract: This rule would amend FMCSA regulations to reflect that the Agency will no longer require applicants seeking regular-route operating authority to submit a detailed description of the route(s) over which they propose to operate. Rather, the Agency would propose to register passenger carriers seeking regular-route operating authority as regular-route carriers without requiring designation of specific regular routes or fixed termini. FMCSA believes this rulemaking would reduce the burden on regular-route carriers seeking to expand or change their routes, as well as the Agency, by eliminating the need to file and process multiple applications containing detailed routes.
