Funding Alert: State of Good Repair
If you haven’t heard by now, Federal Transit Authority (FTA) Administrator Peter M. Rogoff recently announced a $775 million competitive grant program for its Bus and Bus Facilities “State of Good Repair” initiative. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has also recently released several “Notices of Funding Availability (NOFA),” outlining new grant opportunities for transit systems. To read more about these funding opportunities, go here.
If applying for grant funding is unchartered territory for you, or if you would like to gain more clarity around the process, the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Transportation Policy at DOT is presenting a seminar, “How to Compete for a DOT Discretionary Grant” on May 18 in Washington, DC.
