2028-30 Regional Flexible Funds Allocation (RFFA) timeline
2028-30 RFFA Step 2 – Call for projects
The next round of regional flexible funds are for dollars available 2028 through 2030. While 2028 may seem far off, it is necessary to select projects by summer 2025 to prepare the Regional Flexible Fund awarded projects for the federal funding process.
The call for projects starts in fall 2024. Like previous cycles, cities, counties and parks districts will submit applications for federal funding for local transportation projects that align with the region’s funding priorities. The amount available for Step 2 is in a range of $47 to $60 million, and the call for projects is scheduled from September 6 to November 15, 2024.
New to the regional flexible fund Step 2 allocation is a pre-application period that requires a letter of intent to apply. Instructions and materials can be found on this page for the pre-application. The pre-application period is from August 12 to August 23, 2024. Interested cities, counties and parks districts are encouraged to submit their letter of intent to apply soon because the call for projects opens shortly after. Application assistance is available to Step 2 applicants but can only be requested through the letter of intent to apply.
Following the Step 2 pre-application period, the Step 2 call for projects solicitation materials (e.g. applicant handbook, etc.) will be posted on this page as it becomes available.
