More Opportunities for Rural Areas in Transportation Grants

This act makes it easier for small, rural counties with significant federal land ownership, and local and tribal governments within them, to secure transportation grants. This means residents in these areas can anticipate improved infrastructure, such as roads, public transit, or airports, due to easier access to funding and reduced financial requirements.
Key points
Halving the required local matching funds for transportation grants for rural counties with high federal land density.
Prioritizing grant applications from these counties and tribal governments that have not received support in the past 10 years.
Providing additional technical assistance and flexibility in the application process to help small communities access funds.
