NJ TRANSIT administers the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) Section 5310 Grant Program in the State of New Jersey.
The intent of this program is to improve mobility for seniors and people with disabilities by providing financial support,
through programs planned, designed, and carried out to meet the transportation needs of these populations.
Funding is available for FY 2016 for operating transportation projects, mobility management projects and capital projects.
Be advised that there is a monetary match requirement for all FTA projects.
Sub recipients applying for operating projects must provide a 50% match,
mobility management projects require a 20% match and depending upon funding availability capital projects may require a 20% match.

In order to be selected, your organization must be an active participant in the Coordinated Human Services Transportation Planning process.
Information on this process is contained in the application.
It is a competitive grant process. If an application is selected for inclusion in the
statewide grant and the FTA approves the grant then NJ TRANSIT enters into an agreement
