The Rogue Valley Transportation District announced on Mar. 18 that the application period for the Federal Transit Administration Section 5310 Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities Formula Fund Grant Solicitation for the years 2027 to 2029 is now closed.

This grant program aims to support transportation services that improve mobility for seniors and individuals with disabilities. The closure of this solicitation marks an important step in the funding cycle, as organizations seeking support had a limited window to apply.

According to information released by Rogue Valley Transportation District, the timeline for this round included several key dates: publication of the solicitation on March 25, applications due by April 10, review by AWG on April 16, and a board meeting scheduled for April 22. These steps were designed to ensure a transparent and structured process for awarding funds.

Section 5310 grants are intended to help communities provide accessible transportation options where they may be lacking or insufficient. By focusing on seniors and individuals with disabilities, these funds play a role in promoting independence and access within local communities.

Further updates regarding future solicitations or awards from this grant cycle may be provided at upcoming board meetings or through official district channels.
