What are sustainable transportation grants?

What is happening? CALTRANS is using state and federal funds for sustainable project grants. The purpose of the grants is for resilience, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and meet state climate goals.

Why is this important? Sustainable transportation grants are for things like transit, bike, pedestrian,  multimodal station access, and electric vehicles.

How will this be important? The grants are also encouraging adaptable and expandable projects instead of planning fixed transportation projects that can’t adapt or grow.
