Grant application period opens for freight rail capital projects

Contact: Logan Bahr, Shannon McClelland

The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) issued a call for proposals to fund freight rail capital projects through its Freight Rail Assistance Program (FRAP).

FRAP received $2.9 million in supplemental funding for grants using funds from previous projects that were delivered under-budget or not undertaken. This supplemental funding is for new grant applications. Applications must be submitted by October 18.

If your project is selected, funds will be available in 2020, subject to legislative approval. Grants are directed toward larger projects, where it is difficult to gain a contribution and where the rail location of the project is of strategic importance to the state, as well as the local community.
