The Department of Transportation has released the 2024 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the Reconnecting Communities Pilot (RCP) Program Fiscal Years (FY) 2024 – 2026 funding.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law established the Reconnecting Communities Pilot (RCP) Grant Program to help reconnect communities previously cut off from economic opportunities by transportation infrastructure. The goal of the program is to advance community-centered transportation connection projects that improve access to daily needs such as jobs, education, healthcare, food, nature, and recreation, and foster equitable development and restoration.
This NOFO includes funding for two grant types that involve the following activities:
- Capital Construction
- Community Planning
DOT will host a series of webinars to go over pertinent components of this year’s NOFO. The schedule can be found on the RCP website under Webinars.
