Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
Application Purpose:
The purpose of this award is to provide the awarded subrecipients operating assistance funding to provide transportation services for people in the non-urbanized areas of the state.
Activities Performed:
Funds will be used to cover eligible operating expenses such as driver salaries, fuel, and items having a useful life of less than one year to continue service for people with mobility needs in the rural areas. This COVID funding (ARPA) is awarded along with CRRSAA funding and core operating assistance in other grants to support the performance of providing operating services to address the impacts of the pandemic on these services.
Expected Outcomes:
Funding will permit NYSDOT and its subrecipients to continue to provide service despite the loss in ridership revenue and the increase costs of fuel, driver retention, and capital assets.
Intended Beneficiaries:
People with mobility needs in non-urbanized areas.
Subrecipient Activities:
The major project in this grant will provide operating assistance based on the available funding allocated to New York State. There are currently 53 awards in the rural area of New York State. This includes multiple awards to subrecipients to cover each year starting with 2021 and using the funding to cover the additional costs due to the pandemic. Each of these awards will provide funding to support the operating assistance to the sub-recipients to support the mobility and necessary support to the target population.
The intercity project will provide support to follow up from the CARES funding to support the 9 intercity carriers in their rural service. The RTAP project will help provide training and other support work to help move past the issues that surrounded the programs during the pandemic.
