ODOT Public Transportation Division (PTD) has announced the award of nearly $5 million through the 2022 – 2024 COVID Relief Discretionary Grant Program. These awards support the preservation of services, retention of drivers and critical personnel, and costs associated with responding to, and recovering from, the global pandemic.
