Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Agency of Transportation (AOT) is now accepting grant applications for the FY 2026 Mobility and Transportation Innovation (MTI) Grant Program. The program is designed to support innovative strategies and projects that improve mobility and access to services for transit-dependent Vermonters, reduce the use of single-occupancy vehicles, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to funds provided through the authorization of the Transportation Bill, this year’s program includes funding from the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Carbon Reduction Program (CRP). These additional CRP funds will specifically support the expansion of travel demand management projects that encourage less carbon-intensive means of travel.
The grant applications are open to municipalities, local or regional planning agencies, transit agencies, school districts or schools, non-profit organizations, and citizen groups focused on providing public transportation resources. Private-sector organizations, individuals, and state and federal agencies are not eligible to receive funds directly but may be partners of a project.
The application, with more details about the program and funding guidelines, is available on the website at https://vtrans.vermont.gov/public-transit/mti.
The deadline for filing applications is Monday September 22 at 4:30 p.m.
For technical assistance filling out the application, or for other questions, please contact Stephanie Reilly, Public Transit Program Coordinator, 802-595-9138, [email protected].
