Applications due June 7 for two transportation programs

Posted online
The Ozarks Transportation Organization is accepting applications through June 7 for two programs that, combined, have more than $340,000 available.

According to a news release, money is available for projects that fall under the Job Access Reverse Commute and New Freedom sections of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users.

Approximately $142,800 in JARC funds is available for capital, planning and operating expenses that support the development and maintenance of transportation services to help low-income individuals travel to and from jobs and activities related to employment, and for reverse commute projects.

Nearly $200,000 in New Freedom funds is available for capital, planning and operating expenses that support new public transportation services and alternatives that are beyond those required by the Americans with Disabilities Act. ADA helps eligible individuals access transportation to and from jobs and employment support services. Additional projects that could be funded under New Freedom include helping cover costs that come from changing the basic mode of service of an ADA paratransit service from curb-to-curb to door-to-door.

Applications received after June 7 will not be considered for funding. An application handbook is available at www.ozarkstransportation.org.
