Bill Summary
A BILL To establish a program to award grants to entities that provide transportation connectors from critically under- served urban communities and rural communities to green spaces.
AI Summary
This bill establishes the Transit to Trails Grant Program, which will award grants to eligible entities (such as states, local governments, and tribal governments) to develop transportation connectors or routes in or serving critically underserved communities to increase access and mobility to federal or non-federal public lands, inland and coastal waters, parklands, or monuments. The bill defines key terms like "critically underserved community," "environmental justice community," and "transportation connector," and outlines the administration of the program, including project proposal requirements, priority criteria, and eligible uses of grant funds. The bill also specifies the federal cost share and technical assistance provisions, and authorizes $10 million, $20 million, and $40 million for the first five fiscal years of the program.
