This grant requests the use of $621693 of (potentially lapsing) FY21 section 5307 urbanized funds

The Federal Transit Administration awarded the City of Fayetteville $777,000 on June 25, 2026, under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507) to fund mid-life overhauls of fixed-route buses. The award obligates $777,000 in FY21 Section 5307 Urbanized Area Formula funds to cover major component replacements including engines, transmissions, DPIM hybrid systems, and related components on several fixed-route buses. The work preserves bus asset life mid-way through the vehicles' useful service life and reduces downstream preventative maintenance requirements while improving maintenance facility working conditions. Performance occurs in North Carolina with a period of performance extending through March 30, 2034. The recipient will procure contractors in compliance with FTA third-party procurement policies and suspension and debarment requirements. No sub-recipients are involved in this award.
