Get your application in!
September 15, 2021
To friends of multimodal transportation in Oregon,
We're pleased to announce that we are now accepting Connect Oregon grant applications! We have set up a convenient online application form where users can save progress as they go. You can also access it on the program website. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to read through the Application Instructions and Instructions for Reviewers documents before they submit their applications. All submissions are time-stamped and must be received by 5:00 pm on October 29.
Approximately $46 million is available for aviation, marine and rail capital improvements projects. (As previously noted, public transportation and pedestrian/bicycle projects had been previously eligible but have been shifted to other grant programs.)
Information about the Connect Oregon program, including timelines, application questions and more, is available on the program website, or contact John Boren, Freight Program manager, at (503) 986-3703 or John.Boren@odot.state.or.us.
Multimodal investments are a key part of ODOT's Strategic Action Plan, which lays out priorities and goals for the next several years. These include reducing congestion in the Portland area and reducing transportation's carbon footprint — both of which are supported by the Connect Oregon program.
Thank you for your interest in multimodal transportation!
The Connect Oregon team
