TIGER Grant Demand Surpasses Available Funding
According to Washington Newsline, "The U.S. Department of Transportation received 585 applications totaling $9.3 billion in requested funding for the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grant program. That's over 18 times more than the $500 million that will be awarded.
The highly competitive TIGER program began seven years ago as a part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The program offers federal funding possibilities for large, transformative multi-modal projects. Since 2009, TIGER has provided nearly $4.6 billion to 381 projects in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico."
