The U.S. Department of Transportation has
announced $500 million will be made available for transportation projects
across the country. This will be the eighth round of Transportation Investment
Generating Economic Recovery, also called TIGER, competitive grant
program.
Like the first seven rounds, the 2016 TIGER
discretionary grants will fund capital investments in surface transportation
infrastructure and will be awarded on a competitive basis for projects that
will have a significant impact on the nation, a metropolitan area or a region.
The 2016 TIGER grant program will focus on capital projects that generate
economic development and improve access to reliable, safe and affordable
transportation for communities, both urban and rural.
Applications are due April 29, 2016. For more information on how to apply, visit the U.S. Department of Transportation's website.
