State of Good Repair Grants Program (transit)
Program overview
In fiscal years 2022 through 2025, the State of Good Repair Grants Program (transit) received $15,546,291,844 in total obligated funds. The program offers states, counties, cities, townships, special districts, and federally recognized tribal governments funding to help transit agencies maintain high-intensity public transit and bus systems in a state of good repair and replace rail rolling stock. The money can go toward the maintenance, replacement, and rehabilitation of transit systems or financing of revenue service, passenger carrying vehicles, or propulsion vehicles necessary for the provision of rail public transportation. This program also includes the Rail Vehicle Replacement subprogram.

About
Update: This tool was updated on October 21, 2026 with a new data source for federal funding information, new fiscal years of data, new measures of community need, and new analysis pages by infrastructure category.
In this tool, we analyze 71 major federal infrastructure programs funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, and annual appropriations (many programs were allocated funding through multiple laws). The funding data comes from USAspending.gov, which is standardized across federal agencies. Data in the initial tool release (2023) and prior update (2025) came from a combination of sources, including USAspending.gov, program fact sheets, and agency-level press releases and award announcements.
Demographic and need indicator data come from approximately 25 publicly available sources, including the 2016–20 American Community Survey five-year estimates from the US Census Bureau and data produced by other federal agencies.
To learn more about how to use this tool and how we’ve updated it over time, see our user guide.
