Bill 118 s 5626, also known as the "Federal Share Modification Act," aims to adjust the federal government's financial contribution to operating costs for specific projects that receive grants through the Formula Grants to Rural Areas Program of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA).
The bill proposes changes to the Federal share of operating costs for projects in rural areas, which are typically underserved in terms of public transportation options. By modifying the Federal share, the bill seeks to provide additional support to these projects and improve access to transportation for residents in rural communities.
If passed, the bill would impact how funding is allocated for transportation projects in rural areas, potentially increasing the federal government's financial commitment to operating costs. This could lead to improved public transportation services in rural communities and help address transportation challenges faced by residents in these areas.
Overall, Bill 118 s 5626 aims to enhance transportation options in rural areas by adjusting the Federal share of operating costs for projects that receive grants through the Formula Grants to Rural Areas Program of the FTA.
