The Department is participating in the Consolidated Planning Grant (CPG) program for the State fiscal year 2022/23, 2023/24. This program involves federal funds from FHWA and FTA that are allocated to Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) for planning activities. The Department combines these funds into a single grant administered by FHWA. Annual MPO funding allocations are calculated using approved formulas. This item is currently under review as part of the UPWP cycle. The project involves ongoing metropolitan planning activities, which may include studies, data collection, and plan development. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in fields such as engineering, research, and administrative support could find opportunities by engaging early to understand the scope of these planning efforts before specific projects are finalized.
