Dear Partners,
We want to provide you with an update on Oregon Community Paths funding.
Due to a one-time redirection of funds made by the Oregon Legislature, there will not be a competitive grant opportunity for Oregon Community Paths funding this year. A future solicitation schedule is not yet determined.
Projects underway and those that have been selected for Oregon Community Paths funding will not be affected. You can find a full list of project awards on the website, including the most recent awards made in 2025.
To address ODOT’s funding gap for the 2025-2027 budget cycle, the Oregon Legislature redirected state funding from a number of ODOT programs and projects during the 2026 session. This included an $8 million redirection of funds from the Oregon Community Paths program, reducing the overall funding available for the program in the 2025-2027 budget cycle.
Progress report
The most recent Active Transportation Report includes the progress of projects funded by the Oregon Community Paths, along with other programs.
