The Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration awarded a $10.6 million Project Grant to Sarasota County, Florida under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507) to provide capital assistance and continued transit operations from January 2023 through March 2030. Funding will allow Sarasota County Area Transit to purchase 35-foot replacement buses, conduct planning and safety/security enhancements, and maintain ADA/paratransit services provided through a third-party contractor. The grant aims to permit Sarasota County Area Transit to continue providing transit services that would otherwise be reduced due to lack of funding, benefiting both transit riders and workers who rely on the system. No subrecipient activities are specified.
