How Do You Pay For It?
1. An Outreach and Project Development team will educate project sponsors about how they can best combine DOT credit, funding programs, and public-private partnerships (P3).
2. A Credit Programs team that encompasses the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovative Act (TIFIA), Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing (RRIF), and Private Activity Bonds (PABs) programs.
3. The FASTLANE Grant Program team, which will administer the application process for FASTLANE grants.
The US DOT’s Build America Bureau is responsible for driving transportation infrastructure development projects in the United States. The Bureau streamlines credit opportunities and grants by drawing upon the full resources of the department.
There are three core components of the Build America Bureau:
In addition to these federal transportation resources, project sponsors must also consider traditional and innovative project delivery approaches such as tolling, carbon taxing, infrastructure banks, etc.
