The Regional Solicitation is a competitive process to award transportation funding to projects that meet regional transportation needs. It includes three different programs: Regional Solicitation for federal transportation funding, Active Transportation Solicitation, and Highway Safety Improvement Program Solicitation.
The three solicitations are competitive grant processes that the Transportation Advisory Board and Met Council use to prioritize and invest federal transportation funds and regional sales tax funds in infrastructure and services like roads, bridges, transit routes, bike paths, sidewalks, and electric vehicle charging and programs like travel demand management and active transportation planning. These solicitations are part of the Metropolitan Council’s federally required continuing, comprehensive, and cooperative transportation planning process for the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area.
Applications for the Regional Solicitation and Active Transportation Solicitation are now open in Fluxx.
