Transit Funding Gets a Presidential Polish: New Guidance Drops

## Summary

The Federal Transit Administration is sharing new ideas on how to improve the Capital Investment Grants program, which helps fund big public transit projects. These updates follow recent presidential orders and aim to make sure money is spent wisely and smartly. If you’re involved in public transit projects, keep an eye out—these changes could affect how and when you get funding.

## Abstract

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is making available the agency's proposed policy guidance for the Capital Investment Grants (CIG) program.
