The Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration awarded the Westmoreland County Transit Authority a $7.4 million Project Grant under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507) to provide two years of operating assistance from July 2025 through December 2028. Funds will cover eligible operating expenses including driver salaries, fuel, preventative maintenance, and other costs to continue transit operations in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania and allow the authority to recover from impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The grant aims to permit the authority to maintain transit services that would otherwise be reduced due to lack of funding, benefiting both the authority and riders relying on transit to access work and essential services. No subrecipient activities are associated with this award.
