Project Grant 348SBGP2932026

The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Southwestern Region awarded the Texas Department of Transportation $1,026,949.47 on August 20, 2026, under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117) to administer a state block grant program distributing federal funding to nonprimary airports within Texas for taxiway and apron rehabilitation.

TxDOT serves as the designated state transportation agency administering the block grant program and passes federal funds through sub-awards to eligible nonprimary airports across Texas. The grant carries a period of performance through August 19, 2030, with place of performance in Texas. Under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Airport Infrastructure Grants program allocates up to $500 million nationally for nonprimary airports to invest in runways, taxiways, safety and sustainability projects, as well as terminal, airport transit connections, and roadway projects. Grant recipients must maintain an airport layout plan for the duration of the grant agreement, ordinarily twenty years, and retain accounting records reflecting all project costs for three years after submission of the final expenditure report. Recipients submit periodic reports documenting the number of projects put out to bid, contracts awarded, work begun, and work completed, along with associated federal funding amounts for each project stage.
