The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is offering the FY2024 Pilot Program for Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Planning, a grant opportunity that provides funding to local communities to integrate land use and transportation planning around new fixed guideway or core capacity improvement transit projects. The program supports comprehensive or site-specific planning activities that examine ways to improve economic development, ridership, multimodal connectivity, transit access, private sector engagement, infrastructure needs, and mixed-use development near transit stations. Eligible applicants include state, local, and territorial government authorities that are the sponsor of the transit project or have land use authority in the project corridor. Applications will be evaluated on criteria such as demonstrated need, project timeline, and considerations related to environmental justice, climate change, racial equity, and support for the Justice40 Initiative. The deadline to apply is August 2, 2024.
The FY2024 Pilot Program for TOD Planning has a total funding amount of $10,496,164 available, with individual awards ranging from $250,000 to $2 million. The program is funded through the FTA's Capital Investment Grants program, which provides financial assistance for major transit capital investments across the country. Projects supported by this opportunity will focus on comprehensive planning activities within the geographic area of the new fixed guideway or core capacity improvement transit project.
