FTA Section 5311 - Rural Public Transit Program / State Transit Program
Providing quality public transit service to Wyoming's rural communities is the main purpose of the program. Currently, service is available to residents in all 23 counties. Most transit providers are senior centers that have been active in the transit business since the inception of this program in Wyoming in 1985. There are more than 40 rural public transit providers, plus the two in the urbanized areas of Casper and Cheyenne.
The Rural Public Transit Program provides state funding and federal formula grants to support development, maintenance and improvement of public transportation in rural and small urban areas. WYDOT administers Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5311 program for rural transportation projects in areas with population under 50,000. State Transit funds, authorized by the Wyoming State Legislature, supplement the § 5311 program funds, and are also available to Cheyenne and Casper that receive FTA § 5307 funds directly.

Section 5310 Mobility Management Grant
Title 49 U.S.C. 5310 (CFDA Number 20.513) amended by MAP 21, authorizes a formula grant assistance program for the enhanced mobility of seniors and individuals with disabilities. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA), as well as, the West Virginia Division of Multimodal Transportations Facilities - Transit (Public Transit), refers to this program as “the Section 5310 Program.” FTA, on behalf of the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, apportions the funds appropriated annually to the States based on an administrative formula that considers the number of seniors and individuals with disabilities in each state.
The goal of the Section 5310 Program is to enhance mobility for seniors and individuals with disabilities throughout the country. Towards this goal, FTA provides financial assistance for transportation services planned, designed and carried out to meet the special transportation needs of seniors and individuals with disabilities in all areas - urbanized, small urban, and rural. The program requires coordination with other federally assisted programs and services in order to make the most efficient use of Federal resources.

Each applicant must develop a concept paper that identifies a traffic safety problem in the applicant’s jurisdiction. Applicants should provide documentation in the form of crash data of the traffic safety problem targeted by the subgrant.

The review and approval of these subgrants goes through a separate process but is otherwise similar to the above Traffic Records priority area.
The funding can be used for projects that improve the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and uniformity of the state's six traffic records systems (citation/adjudication, crash, driver, EMS/injury surveillance system, roadway, and vehicle) or that advance the goals and objectives of Florida's TRCC as documented in the Florida Traffic Safety Information System Strategic Plan. TRCC subgrant funding to purchase third party software to provide an interface with law enforcement agencies to submit electronic citation data is not allowed. If the funding will be used to purchase a Records Management System, Case Management System, or other type of overall document management system, only the portion of the system related to traffic records (e-crash or e-citation data) can be funded.
Agencies are encouraged to apply for both the Traffic Records and TRCC priority areas. Please note this requires the submission of two separate concept papers, which can be exactly the same.

Aid to Agencies
About the Program
The Arapahoe County Aid to Agencies (A2A) Program provides financial support to nonprofit organizations delivering essential services to Arapahoe County residents. Established in 2008 by the Arapahoe County Board of County Commissioners, the program was created to address critical community needs through strategic partnerships with local nonprofit providers.
Since its inception, the program has awarded more than $30 million to nonprofits serving residents across the county.
For the 2026–2027 funding cycle, approximately $3,079,500 in General Fund support will be available, including designated allocations for safety net providers.
