The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) awarded $1.2 million to the Maryland Transit Administration on January 7, 2026, under the Buses and Bus Facilities Formula, Competitive, and Low or No Emissions Programs (CFDA 20.526) to fund the acquisition of two new transit buses. The project, with an expected completion date of April 30, 2027, will enable the Regional Transportation Agency of Central Maryland to extend Route 409 five miles north from Elkridge, Maryland in Howard County to Lansdowne Station in Baltimore County. Howard County, serving as the subrecipient, will acquire the two new transit buses necessary to support this service expansion. This transit infrastructure investment will provide additional local transportation services from Elkridge and establish an important regional connection between Baltimore and Howard Counties. The project directly benefits residents in the Elkridge community and surrounding areas across both counties, improving accessibility and multimodal connectivity through capital investment in bus fleet expansion rather than facility construction or equipment rehabilitation. The award aligns with FTA's mission to modernize public transportation systems and support regional transit connectivity through formula-based funding mechanisms.Federal Grant Award Summary
