The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) plans to terminate leases on its satellite offices located in the Washington area. This decision is part of a strategic move to consolidate its operations by relocating its headquarters staff into a building that also houses the U.S. Transportation Department (USDOT).

FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford communicated to staff via an email, which Reuters obtained, highlighting that the transition would enhance collaboration. 'We will work more effectively when we're together, rather than being spread across six different office locations,' Bedford stated.

The USDOT revealed on Tuesday its intention to relocate thousands of FAA employees to its main headquarters in Washington, part of a larger effort to streamline agency IT and other systems for efficiency.
