Good morning Clean Cities Stakeholders!

I hope everyone is looking forward to a nice Thanksgiving weekend. Due to the holidays, the Coalition has decided to postpone the quarterly stakeholder meeting to January 2022. The next meeting will be in person and held at the SFRPC office.

Breakfast will be provided.

An Outlook calendar invitation will be sent in mid-December. In addition, a form will be circulated to vote on the two (2) Awards that will be given at the meeting.

U.S. Department of Transportation Announces Key Priorities, Funding for Public Transportation Under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law



The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal is the largest investment in American infrastructure in generations and marks an inflection point for American transit. It will boost transit funding for communities all over the country by an average of 30% – helping communities address maintenance backlogs, modernize and expand. The new funding provided under the bill will help transit agencies reduce the current maintenance backlog by 15% and replace more than 500 aging subway, light rail, and commuter rail cars. It will further modernize the nation’s transit fleet by replacing more than 10,000 fossil-fuel powered transit vehicles with cleaner electric or low-emission transit vehicles.

Following President Biden’s signing of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal (BID) into law, FTA today announced key priorities and historic funding amounts for public transportation. The BID authorizes up to $108 billion, including $91 billion in guaranteed funding for public transportation – the most significant federal investment in transit in the nation’s history.
