About this opportunity
North Carolina Department of Transportation is soliciting applications under the FY25 Section 5310 Call for Projects, with applications due November 12, 2026, to fund transportation services for elderly persons and individuals with disabilities in Mecklenburg County and Cleveland Town.
Section 5310 provides federal funding for projects serving transit-dependent populations when traditional public transportation is insufficient, unavailable, or inappropriate, and for programs that expand transportation options beyond ADA-mandated service. The program consolidates former Section 5310 and Section 5317 (New Freedom) authorities under the Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities framework established by MAP-21 in 2012.
Eligible applicants may propose capital projects, operating assistance, or supportive services that address mobility gaps in the designated jurisdictions. A Section 5310 Application Information Meeting recording is available at the provided YouTube link.
Opportunity text
In July 2012, Congress authorized a new federal transportation bill, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21), which consolidated two transit programs under previous legislation (Section 5310: "Transportation for Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities" and Section 5317: "New Freedom Program") into a single: "Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities" (Section 5310). The purpose of this consolidated program is to provide funds for projects that serve the special needs of transit-dependent populations when traditional public transportation services are insufficient, unavailable, or inappropriate and programs that expand the transportation options beyond those required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
