WASHINGTON — The Federal Transit Administration has announced the availability of $600 million for new subway, light rail, and commuter railcars under its Rail Vehicle Replacement Program, part of $1.5 billion over the next five years under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
“One-third of subway and commuter rail vehicles are more than 25 years old,” FTA Administrator Nuria Fernandez said in a press release on the Notice of Funding Opportunity. “Americans who ride transit deserve a world-class experience, featuring newer, safer, more efficient railcars.”
The full Notice of Funding Opportunity for fiscal 2022 and 2023 is available here. More information on the program, including information about a Nov. 3 webinar on how to apply, is available here.
Proposals must be submitted through the Grants.gov Apply function by Jan. 5, 2023.
