The Berkshire Regional Transit Authority (BRTA) received a $400,000 federal Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507). This award will support the following activities from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2026:
- Preventative maintenance of BRTA's vehicle fleet, equipment, and facilities.
- Procurement of 5310 vehicle extras for vehicles acquired by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT).

These projects will improve the state of good repair for BRTA's assets, enhance operations, and allow for continued public transportation service to the greater Pittsfield, MA area. BRTA serves 30 communities in Berkshire County, providing fixed-route bus and paratransit services across a region almost the size of Rhode Island.
