About the company
Corpus Christi Regional Transportation Authority, a U.S. local government transit authority based in Corpus Christi, Texas, receives federal grants as the prime recipient to fund capital equipment procurement, infrastructure modernization, and operating expenses for regional public transportation services. CCRTA operates entirely as a grant recipient under the Federal Transit Administration (FTA); it does not hold federal contracts, serve as a subcontractor, or pursue set-aside designations.
CCRTA's federal footprint is concentrated almost entirely within the FTA. Of 73 total awards in the source data spanning back to 1999, 72 awards derive from the Federal Transit Administration under multiple FTA grant programs, with one award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. CCRTA operates as prime recipient on all awards; no sub-recipient relationships are documented. Recent activity shows growth: one award in 2023, two in 2024, five in 2025, and three in 2026 (through August).
Recent representative grants include a $2.43 million FTA Community Project Funding award (CFDA 20.534) in July 2026 to advance construction-documents-phase design services for a new Bear Lane Maintenance Facility, replacing a 50-year-old building; an $8.65 million FTA Federal Transit Formula Grants award (CFDA 20.507) in August 2025 for capital equipment replacement and vehicle acquisition; a $6.95 million FTA Buses and Bus Facilities grant (CFDA 20.526) in August 2025 for acquisition of eight low-emission compressed natural gas (CNG) buses and workforce development; and a $522,816 FTA Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities grant (CFDA 20.513) in August 2026 for intelligent transportation systems improvements including passenger information kiosks, wayfinding signage, and ADA paratransit technology infrastructure. Work performed spans Texas with periods of performance extending through 2029.
The grant portfolio emphasizes transit infrastructure modernization, fleet electrification and emissions reduction, maintenance facility improvements, accessibility technology, and operating assistance for seniors and individuals with disabilities. CCRTA has also received FTA funding under American Rescue Plan (ARP) and Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (CRRSAA) provisions for pandemic-related operating expense reimbursement and bus shelter procurement. Seven awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, positioning CCRTA for grant renewals and supplemental funding cycles.
