Opportunity Information: Apply for RSTGP 25 26 RURAL
The Rural Surface Transportation Grant Program is a competitive funding opportunity created under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to enhance rural surface transportation infrastructure. It's part of a broader Multimodal Projects Discretionary Grant (MPDG) initiative that consolidates multiple grant programs to simplify the application process and accelerate "shovel-worthy" projects.
With approximately $1.7 billion allocated over five years, this round of funding includes about $780 million, with at least 90% of funds awarded in amounts of $25 million or more. Applicants seeking less than $25 million will compete for just $78 million nationwide.
Applications will be evaluated based on six outcome criteria: safety; state of good repair; economic impacts, freight movement, and job creation; climate change, resilience, and the environment; equity, multimodal options, and quality of life; and innovation in technology, project delivery, and financing. Additionally, economic analysis, project readiness, and statutory requirements will be considered.
Eligible applicants include states (including D.C. and Puerto Rico), regional transportation planning organizations, local governments, tribal governments, and coalitions of these entities. Funded projects can include highway, bridge, and tunnel improvements under various federal programs, freight movement enhancements, highway safety projects, and initiatives that improve access to agricultural, commercial, energy, or intermodal facilities critical to rural economies.
Applicants submitting to multiple programs under MPDG only need to apply once through Grants.gov, as a single application will be considered across eligible programs unless opted out.Apply for RSTGP 25 26 RURAL
