The Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) has announced a new program aimed at assisting local entities with applying for federal grants. The program is designed to help communities navigate the complex process of applying for federal funding for transportation projects.
NDOT recognizes that securing federal grants can be daunting for smaller communities, so they have developed this program to provide guidance and support throughout the application process. By offering workshops, webinars, and one-on-one assistance, NDOT aims to increase the chances of success for communities seeking federal funding.
The program will focus on a variety of federal grant programs, including those offered by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). NDOT staff members will work closely with applicants to understand their specific needs and help tailor their grant applications to meet the requirements of each funding opportunity.
In a statement, NDOT Director John Selmer emphasized the importance of federal funding for transportation projects in Nebraska, highlighting the significant impact that these grants can have on local communities. He expressed confidence that the new program will help streamline the application process and increase the competitiveness of Nebraska applicants.
Local entities interested in participating in the program are encouraged to reach out to NDOT for more information. The department is committed to supporting communities across the state in their efforts to secure federal funding for transportation projects, and hopes that this new program will make the process more accessible and manageable for all applicants.
