Resilient Transit Act of 2025

What this bill does

  • The bill authorizes the Department of Transportation to award grants to states and local governments for public transit projects that protect systems from climate impacts.
  • States, cities, and local transit agencies benefit from funding to upgrade infrastructure vulnerable to flooding, sea level rise, wildfires, and extreme weather.
  • The program funds both standalone resilience projects and components of larger capital projects, with DOT required to report annually to Congress.

  3. 03

    Which communities might face barriers to accessing these grants, and how should the selection process address disparities in local funding capacity?
