About this opportunity
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) is seeking grant applications for the Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) program, which aims to enhance the safety, efficiency, and reliability of intercity passenger and freight rail systems. Eligible applicants include state governments, public agencies, railroads, and other transportation entities, with the FRA giving preference to projects where the federal share of total project costs is 50 percent or less and involves multiple funding sources. Key application requirements include a project narrative, statement of work, benefit-cost analysis, environmental compliance documentation, and various standard federal forms such as SF424 and SF424C. The FRA will evaluate proposals based on factors including potential private sector participation, the recipient's past performance, and the maximization of net benefits considering anticipated public and private benefits. The grant opportunity is open from August 15, 2025, with proposals due by August 27, 2025.
While specific award amounts are not explicitly stated, the CRISI program has historically funded projects ranging from several hundred thousand to over $200 million, with performance periods typically spanning two to five years. The place of performance can be nationwide, with recent projects focusing on rail infrastructure improvements in states like Georgia, Washington, Indiana, and Missouri. Recipients must comply with federal requirements, including constitutional provisions, Department of Transportation regulations, and various administrative and national policy standards such as procurement guidelines, civil rights laws, and Buy America requirements. Successful applicants will be notified through a press release and the FRA website, with a formal grant agreement required before project initiation.
