Bus and Bus Facilities Livability Initiative: Solicitation of Project Proposals

Federal transit funds are available to State or local governmental authorities as recipients and other public transportation providers as subrecipients.

There is no monetary floor or upper limit for any single grant award; however, FTA intends to fund as many meritorious projects as possible.



In addition, FTA will take into consideration the geographic diversity and other discretionary awards in award decisions.

Consistent with 49 U.S.C.

Section 5309(m)(8), the Secretary shall consider the age and condition of buses, bus fleets, and bus-related facilities and equipment of proposers in its award of State of Good Repair, Bus Livability and Clean Fuels grants.

Eligible proposers and eventual grant applicants under this initiative are Direct Recipients under the Section 5307 Urbanized Area Formula program, States, and Indian Tribes.

Proposals for funding eligible projects in rural (nonurbanized) areas must be submitted as part of a consolidated State proposal with the exception of nonurbanized projects to Federally Recognized Tribes.

States, Direct Recipients, and Tribes may also submit consolidated proposals for projects in urbanized areas.

Proposals shall contain projects to be implemented by the Recipient or its subrecipients.

Eligible subrecipients include public agencies, private non-profit organizations, and private providers engaged in public transportation.
