Active Transportation Infrastructure Program Guide <br />Updated September 2022 <br />Funding Options <br />AT funding does not require any local match, <br />and grants are paid on a reimbursable basis <br />(the local agency finances 100% of the project <br />cost up front and submits state aid pay <br />requests for reimbursement). Grant requests <br />must be between $50,000 and $500,000. The <br />grant funds are intended to fund standalone <br />AT projects or provide the local match for a <br />federally funded active transportation <br />project. Applicants may also submit multiple <br />applications for different AT projects in and <br />around their community. <br />FUNDING INFORMATION <br />0 No local match required <br />J <br />o <br />Grants paid as reimbursement <br />) <br />FUNDING USES <br />0 Fund standalone project <br />QLocal match for federal grant <br />QApplicants may submit multiple applications <br />) <br />Funding Types <br />Two project types are available for applicants to select from: (1) funding for construction of standalone project <br />that uses no federal funding, and (2) local match for a project that has already been selected for a federal grant. <br />Construction of Standalone Project (No federal funding) <br />This option is available for communities that have a project identified in their AT plan or other planning <br />document and only need funds to implement the improvements. This option may be used to fund up to 100% of <br />eligible AT construction costs. <br />Local Match for Federally Funded Project <br />Funds may be used for the local share on AT federally funded projects already programmed in the Statewide <br />Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). To be considered for a local match, the project must already be <br />awarded federal funding, have a federal MnDOT project number, and be listed in an approved STIP for <br />construction in 2023 or 2024. <br />Federal Transportation Alternative or Safe Streets for All funding may also be eligible for use on these types of <br />infrastructure projects. Applicants may want to consider which program best fits the needs of their project. <br />Multiple Applications <br />Applicants may submit multiple project applications but only one for each project location. Applications may be <br />either of the two funding types described above under Funding Types. <br />Infrastructure Grants - Active Transportation Program - MnDOT 4 <br />
