Local transit program for Tribes?
IRR construction funds may be used to construct transit system facilities (i.e. transit pick-up shelters) and purchase vehicles for a tribal transit program, but, cannot be used to operate the program. Funds for both capital improvements/purchases and operating assistance are available from the Federal Transit Administration, under Section 5311, through the state DOT. Funds are also available from the Federal Transit administration, under Section 5313, through the state DOT, to provide training and technical assistance to transit operators.
