The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) received a $7,443,765 Project Grant award from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) under the Buses and Bus Facilities Formula, Competitive, and Low or No Emissions Programs (CFDA 20.526). The grant will fund the purchase of 4 new expansion rural transit vehicles and replacement of 3 rural transit vehicles that have exceeded their useful life. The project aims to improve transit service and reliability, reduce fuel consumption, and lower maintenance costs for critical transit services in rural areas across Texas. A sub-award of $1,796,771 was provided to the East Texas Council of Governments (ETCOG) to support these vehicle acquisitions. The project is expected to be completed by December 31, 2026.
