Transportation Alternatives Program Grant FY25

The Transportation Alternatives (TA) Set-Aside, part of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Surface Transportation Block Grant Program, offers reimbursable federal aid for transportation-related community projects that enhance the intermodal transportation system. Maryland’s TA Program aims to improve mobility and accessibility, and enrich the cultural, aesthetic, historic, and environmental facets of the state’s transportation network. It supports the creation of bicycle and pedestrian facilities, the restoration of historic transportation buildings, the conversion of abandoned railway corridors to trails, and the mitigation of highway runoff, with a focus on projects that enhance community connectivity and the overall transportation landscape.
