The California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) is a state cabinet-level agency with the government of California. The agency is responsible for transportation-related departments within the state.[1] The agency was created under governor Jerry Brown in 2013 after the previous Business, Transportation and Housing Agency's portfolio underwent reorganization.

David S. Kim became the third Secretary of CalSTA on July 1, 2019, following his appointment by Governor Gavin Newsom in April 2019.[2][3] In February 2022, Governor Newsom appointed Toks Omishakin, who at that time was Director of the California Department of Transportation, as the fourth Secretary of CalSTA.[4]
