Mass Transit Vehicle Replacement Program
The Mass Transit Vehicle Replacement Program is offered to agencies in the six
designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) areas that are direct
recipients of FTA §5307 (urban general public services) Program funds.
This program has $4,000,000 each biennium to replace urban fixed route
vehicles. There are significantly more requests for replacements than there are
funds available.
Each vehicle proposed for replacement will be ranked based on the following
criteria:
1. Vehicle meets or exceeds age standard for the vehicle type;
2. Vehicle mileage meets or exceeds the standard for that vehicle type;
3. Vehicle condition; and
4. Like-for-like replacement in Oregon Useful Life Standards Categories A, B,
and C.
Applications are now being accepted. DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS:
March 15, 2011. Postmark by deadline if mailed; date stamped by deadline if emailed
or faxed.
Provide applications by email to Joni Bramlett, or by fax at 503-986-4189. Applications may also be sent by US mail to:
Joni Bramlett, Capital Programs Manager
ODOT Public Transit Division
555 13th St. NE, Suite 3
Salem, OR 97301
The final list of replacement vehicles will be approved for funding by the Oregon
Transportation Commission. At this time, we expect this topic to be on the April
2011 meeting agenda.
Once approved, agencies will receive award letters with dollar amounts. Then the
local Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) must be amended to include
the project and new STIP key. Once that is complete, funds may be applied for
by agencies in a direct grant with FTA in the 5307 program.
Questions may be addressed to ODOT PTD, Joni Bramlett, Capital Programs
Manager at 503-986-3416, or email.
