Project Grant CA2022010

This $6.6 million federal Project Grant from the Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration through the Urbanized Area Formula Funding Program (Section 5307) will support operating assistance for transit services in Marin County, California from January 2022 through March 2023. The funding will prevent service cuts and sustain fixed route and paratransit operations provided under contract by Marin Transit, the designated direct recipient. By maintaining pre-pandemic levels of transit access for riders, including eligible ADA passengers, the award aims to respond to lost fare revenues from COVID-19 and ensure critical mobility needs continue to be met. As no subrecipient activities are involved, Marin Transit will utilize the full $6.6M award amount to directly pay for contracted transit operations through the scheduled completion date while avoiding employee furloughs.
