This $1,126,742 Formula Grant award from the Federal Transit Administration's Formula Grants for Rural Areas and Tribal Transit Program (CFDA 20.509) provides funding to the Puerto Rico Highway & Transportation Authority to support public transportation infrastructure and services in rural areas across Puerto Rico. The grant aims to improve, initiate, and continue transit services in municipalities with populations under 50,000, including Adjuntas, Coamo, Jayuya, Salinas, and Utuado. The grant will fund a range of activities, such as operating assistance, preventive maintenance, vehicle acquisitions, installation of bus stops and signage, technology upgrades like GPS and passenger counting systems, as well as state-level administrative support and technical assistance. These investments are expected to enhance the reliability and safety of public transportation services, increase accessibility for elderly and disabled residents, and enable more efficient data reporting and service monitoring. The Puerto Rico Highway & Transportation Authority will serve as the primary grantee, with several municipalities acting as sub-grantees to deliver these transportation improvements within their local communities.
