Multimodal Projects Discretionary Grant
The Multimodal Project Discretionary Grant common application (MPDG) provides Federal financial assistance to highway and bridge, intercity passenger rail, railway-highway grade and separation, wildlife crossing, public transportation, marine highway, and freight and multimodal projects, or groups of such projects, of national or regional significance, as well as to projects to improve and expand the surface transportation infrastructure in rural areas. To help streamline the process for applicants, USDOT has combined the applications for the Mega, INFRA, and Rural programs into the MPDG common application.
