Local governments can seek federal funding for transportation projects
11/10/2011
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has announced the opportunity to apply for about $200 million in funding under a dozen grant programs, many of which provide funding for local projects.
 
In the last round of funding, ODOT and local governments received nearly $20 million from these programs for 16 different projects.
 
Information on these programs, as well as grant applications and instructions, are available on FHWA's website at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/discretionary. The primary funding programs available to local governments are:
Transportation, Community, and System Preservation
Public Lands Highways
Ferry Boat
National Historic Covered Bridge Preservation
FHWA requires that ODOT coordinate the submission of all grant applications in the state. For information on this process, please visit ODOT’s Federal Affairs webpage.
