Abstract:On December 4, 2015, the President signed the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act into law (Pub. L. 114-94). The FAST Act replaced the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) with a set-aside of funds under the Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG). For administrative purposes, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) will refer to these funds as the TA Set-Aside. The attached TA Set-Aside Implementation Guidance provides information on funding, eligible activities, and requirements of the TA Set-Aside, including the Recreational Trails Program (RTP). This memorandum supersedes the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) Guidance, dated March 6, 2014, and the TAP Questions and Answers Revision, dated August 17, 2015. The effective date of this TA Set-Aside Implementation Guidance is October 1, 2015. The TA Set-Aside requirements, in effect on October 1, 2015, will apply to all related funding obligated on or after that date, whether funded from new TA Set-Aside authorizations or TAP funds authorized in previous years.
