The Texas Department of Transportation has announced $82 million in grants to fund public transportation providers in rural, small urban and large urban areas of Texas.
Overall, these state and federal grants are designed to help pay for maintenance of vehicles and facilities; vehicle purchases and transit facility improvements; and regionally coordinated public transportation planning efforts.
Ultimately, these funds pay for resources that give Texans access to transportation so they can get go to school, job training, health care appointments, businesses and recreational activities.
In Austin, the Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS) was awarded $1,004,008. The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) will receive $25,000 and the city of San Marcos was awarded $235,906.
