About the company
Manatee County Area Transit (MCAT) is the primary public transportation provider serving Manatee County, Florida, offering comprehensive transit services including fixed-route and demand response transportation. Registered in SAM.gov since 2009, MCAT is a U.S. local government entity and transit authority dedicated to improving mobility and quality of life for county residents and visitors. The organization aims to provide cost-efficient, accessible, and intermodal transportation options that help minimize traffic congestion and provide alternative mobility solutions throughout the region.
Through federal grant awards, primarily from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), MCAT has consistently secured funding for a wide range of capital and operational expenses. These grants, including Federal Transit Formula Grants (CFDA 20.507) and Buses and Bus Facilities Formula Grants (CFDA 20.526), have supported critical activities such as vehicle purchases and replacements, facility upgrades and renovations, preventative maintenance, passenger amenity installations, computer hardware and software acquisitions, employee training, and operating assistance. Recent grant awards, ranging from $453,649 to $11 million, have enabled MCAT to maintain and expand its fleet, upgrade infrastructure, purchase clean diesel buses and paratransit vehicles, install bus stop shelters and accessibility improvements, and ensure continued transit operations. The organization has also received pandemic-related support through CARES Act and American Rescue Plan Act funding, which helped sustain services during the COVID-19 recovery period. While primarily working directly with the FTA, MCAT has also received sub-awards from the State of Florida Department of Transportation for operating assistance.
