President Joe Biden and the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) awarded $409.3 million in grants to 70 projects in 39 states to modernize and electrify America’s buses, including $6.4 million for the city of Madison. The grants support modernizing and improving the most widespread form of transit in America and will help dozens of communities buy new technology and electric buses that reduce or eliminate greenhouse gas emissions, promote cleaner air, and help address the climate crisis. The city of Madison (Metro Transit) will receive funding to rehabilitate its maintenance and administrative facility. The project will ensure a state of good repair so the transit system can continue to provide safe and reliable transit service for residents throughout Madison.
