REDDING – The California Department of Transportation, District 2, will host a Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant Workshop on Thursday September 25, 2025, from 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM via Webex.
Caltrans’ Transportation Planning Grants are intended to strengthen the economy, promote equity, and protect the environment. These are the current grant funding sources available: Sustainable Communities Competitive and Formula, Climate Adaptation Planning, Strategic Partnerships, and Strategic Partnerships - Transit. The total amount of grant funding available is approximately $22 million. These grants may be used for a wide range of transportation purposes that address local and regional transportation needs and issues and should ultimately lead to the adoption, initiation, and programming of transportation improvements. Past grant recipients include Modoc County Active and Multimodal Transportation Plan, Plumas County Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Master Plan, and Siskiyou County Evacuation and Preparedness Plan.
This workshop will offer valuable information on the grant application process and how to obtain these grants. For more information please visit the Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant Program website.
