The Federal Transit Authority announced the availability of up to $10 million in Fiscal Year 2021 competitive grant funding to support transit services for American Indian tribes and Alaska Native villages in rural areas. Application submissions to Grants.gov will open on Thursday, May 27, 2021 and the application period will close on Wednesday, August 25, 2021.
FTA’s Tribal Transit Program is authorized by Congress to support public transportation for federally recognized Indian tribes and Alaska Native villages, groups, or communities, as well as to meet the needs of older adults, people with disabilities, and youth in rural areas where there are important transit needs.
The Tribal Transit Program advances the Biden Administration’s commitment to modernize our nation’s transportation infrastructure, advance racial equity and support underserved communities.
