FTA Issues Dear Colleague Letter Regarding the Capital Investment Grants Program

FTA today issued a Dear Colleague Letter rescinding a June 2018 Dear Colleague letter regarding the Capital Investment Grants (CIG) program.

The 2018 letter outlined factors the former Administration chose to emphasize when making discretionary funding decisions for the CIG program. Rather than the approach outlined in the 2018 letter, FTA will instead rely on the CIG statutory framework to ensure projects awarded funding have met the requirements of federal public transportation law, the Major Capital Investment Projects regulation, and the CIG Final Interim Policy Guidance.
