Statewide planning and research (SPR) FY-2021 part 2

The Alabama Department of Transportation received a $127,100.84 project grant award from the Federal Highway Administration on April 21, 2021 under the Highway Training and Education federal grant program (CFDA 20.215).

The grant funding will support the Statewide Planning and Research (SPR) Part 2 program. As indicated in the program description, the Highway Training and Education program encompasses various transportation training and education initiatives. It is reasonable to infer the SPR Part 2 project grant funding will support the development and administration of educational and training programs for Alabama's highway community in cooperation with the National Highway Institute, consistent with the purpose of the CFDA.

The Alabama Department of Public Health is listed as the parent organization of the primary awardee, suggesting planning and research deliverables under this award may involve coordination across state agencies.
