Project Funding Awarded Through TAP and CMAQ Programs

Last week, the New York State Department of Transportation announced the award of funding for projects through the 2021 Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) Program totaling $178.8 million to 75 communities across New York State. With the assistance of our technical and planning teams, our clients were able to secure more than $5 million in funding.
