The National Capital Transportation Agency (NCTA) was created in 1960 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower to comprehensively plan different modes of transportation in the Washington, D.C. area. John F. Kennedy appointed Darwin Stolzenbach as administrator of the NCTA, which laid the groundwork for the Washington Metro System.[1]
In 1967 the NCTA was abolished and its functions, duties, property, and records were transferred to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.[2]
