Notice of Availability of Proposed Policy Guidance for the Capital Investment Grants Program

Notice; request for comments.

This notice requests comment on FTA's revised policy guidance for the Capital Investment Grants (CIG) program. The CIG Policy Guidance provides an overview of CIG project types and the CIG process from project initiation to construction grant award. The proposed revisions are intended to streamline the CIG process, improve accountability of CIG project sponsors, and improve overall readability of the policy guidance. The proposals incorporate suggestions FTA received in response to its Request for Information published on August 19, 2025. The final CIG Policy Guidance, when published on the FTA website, is to be effective immediately; no grandfathering will be allowed for any projects currently in the CIG pipeline.
