This Federal Transit Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration (CFDA 20.513 - Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities) provides $487,736 to the Salem Area Mass Transit District (operating as Cherriots) to continue providing transportation services for seniors and individuals with disabilities in the Salem, OR area. The funding will cover eligible expenses such as the purchase of service, preventive maintenance, and the operation of a transportation brokerage to coordinate providers, funding agencies, and customers. This award will permit Cherriots to sustain transit operations that would otherwise have to be cut due to lack of funding, thereby benefitting the district's riders who rely on these specialized transportation services. The grant period runs from February 26, 2025 through September 30, 2025.
