The San Mateo County Transit District (SAMTRANS) was awarded a $15,633,362 Project Grant from the Federal Transit Administration under the Federal Transit Formula Grants (CFDA 20.507) program. The grant funds will support SAMTRANS operations from July 2021 through June 2024 as the agency recovers from decreased fares and sales tax revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the funding will cover direct salaries, fringe benefits, fuel, insurance, and other operating expenses for SAMTRANS bus operators and other staff through June 2022. No local match is required. The grant aims to allow SAMTRANS to continue operations and support economic recovery as ridership levels increase post-lockdown. SAMTRANS has no subrecipients.
