48201 | DVRPC Competitive CMAQ Program (Various)

The Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ) was established by ISTEA and continued under TEA-21, SAFETEA-LU, and MAP-21. CMAQ funds are allocated to the states for use in non-attainment and maintenance areas for projects that contribute to the attainment of the Clean Air Act standards by reducing emissions from highway sources. Project types that are eligible for CMAQ funding include bicycle and pedestrian facilities; traffic flow improvements; ridesharing and other demand management programs; alternative fuel vehicles; and public transit improvements.
During a round of the DVRPC Competitive CMAQ Program, a call for projects goes out, applications are submitted, and candidate projects are ranked and selected by the DVRPC Board based on their emissions reduction potential, as well as other criteria such as cost-effectiveness, ease of implementation, project readiness, and sponsor commitment to provide matching funds.
