Rhode Island General Laws Title 16. Education § 16-21.1-9. Oversight of statewide transportation system

Upon implementation of the statewide system of transportation, the department of elementary and secondary education shall manage and oversee the system in collaboration with the office of statewide planning at the department of administration, and the Rhode Island public transit authority. Should outsourcing of this function be deemed more efficient, management of the system may be delegated to an outside consultant through a competitive request for proposals.
