FUNDING
DEADLINE
June 1, 2027
The PSRC Executive Board voted in October to award federal funds to priority projects
that will improve local and regional mobility. The projects are part of a $9.6 billion
Regional Transportation Improvement Program over the next four years including
investments in transit, maintenance and preservation, bicycle and pedestrian facilities,
safety, and state and local roadways. Final approval by the state and federal funding
agencies is expected in early 2025.
Securing federal transportation funding for communities in the region is one of the
most important responsibilities of the Puget Sound Regional Council. Through our
merit -based project selection process, PSRC ensures that federal transportation funds
are put to work on priority projects that meet local needs and help achieve the
region's long-term goals for transportation, economic development and growth
planning. This year the project selection criteria were adapted to incorporate
recommendations from PSRC's Equity Advisory Committee ensuring equity is included
in all transportation funding decisions. Kudos to you and your staff for securing this
funding.
