The public comment period for the proposed changes to PSRC's Policy Framework for Federal Funds is now closed.

In early 2021, an ad hoc task force of PSRC board members was established to review the policy framework for PSRC’s federal transportation funding process in 2022.

Among other things, the Project Selection Task Force has made the following recommendations:

  • Develop an Equity Pilot Program
  • Strengthen criteria for equity and safety and include as stand-alone scoring elements

The Equity Pilot Program would be funded through a set aside of 5% of PSRC’s Federal Highway Administration Surface Transportation Block Grant Program funds. PSRC would work with its new Equity Advisory Committee on the development and parameters of this program beginning in July 2022.
