The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) today announced that it has awarded a total of $22.97 million to 23 organizations around the country to support comprehensive planning projects that improve access to public transportation. The funds are from FTA’s Pilot Program for Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Planning, which assists communities that are developing new or expanded mass transit systems. The Pilot Program for TOD Planning funds comprehensive planning projects near public transportation that improve access, encourage ridership and spur economic and mixed-use development.
