The 2024 competitive grant opportunity for the Connect Oregon Fund ends on Thursday, February 29th.

About $46 million is available for eligible aviation, marine and rail transportation projects. Public, private and nonprofit entities are eligible to apply.

This is the eighth competitive funding opportunity since the Connect Oregon program launched in 2005. The program has awarded about $463 million to 242 projects.

Several committees will receive and rank submitted applications over several months before presenting a final recommended project list to the Oregon Transportation Commission. It is expected that the final project list will be presented to the commission at their November meeting.
