The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) Federal Transit Administration (FTA) announced yesterday that 19 awards totaling roughly $13.1 million from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) to help boost local economies, fight climate change, and provide more transportation options through development near new or expanded transit project corridors. Funded by the FTA’s Pilot Program for Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Planning, these grants support local strategies to increase transit access and encourage ridership through mixed-use and mixed-income development near public transportation projects. The program helps communities plan for opportunities created by new transit stations, such as affordable housing, economic development, and better connections to schools, hospitals, stores, and restaurants.
