Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) Program

Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) Program is sponsored by Federal Highway Administration (administered by KDOT and MPOs). This program provides flexible federal funding to preserve and improve federal-aid highways, construct or rehabilitate bridges or tunnels on public roads, and improve pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and transit capital projects.

STBG - Federal-aid Programs - Federal-aid Programs and Special Funding - Federal Highway Administration U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE Federal-aid Programs and Special Funding Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG) The Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) program provides flexible funding that may be used by States and localities for projects to preserve and improve the conditions and performance on any Federal-aid highway, bridge and tunnel projects on any public road, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and transit capital projects, including intercity bus terminals.

The STBG program funding is made available through the State transportation agencies. STBG is an apportioned (formula) program, which means the funds are only made available to the States by a formula contained in law, which is different than a discretionary grant program where eligible applicants may competitively seek funding through a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO).

If an entity believes they have a project that may be eligible under the STBG program, they should contact their respective State Department of Transportation (DOT) or local Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) for additional information on projects and project funding.

The Federal Highway Administration provides STBG program funds to States by formula, yet the selection of projects for funding under the STBG program is the decision of the State DOT or local MPO, in accordance with applicable Federal requirements.
