WASHINGTON, D.C. – Oregon’s U.S. Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden today announced that the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) will receive nearly $42.7 million in funding to support rural public transportation operations and projects—including coronavirus response efforts—in communities throughout the state.<\/p>\n

The funding will be allocated through the Ley de Ayuda, Alivio y Seguridad Econ\u00f3mica por el Coronavirus (CARES)<\/i>, que el Congreso aprob\u00f3 el mes pasado.<\/p>\n

\n

“As we continue to battle the coronavirus pandemic, countless Oregonians are still relying on public transportation to report to their essential jobs, buy groceries, and get to their pharmacies,” dijo Merkley.<\/b> “I’m grateful to our dedicated public transportation workers for everything they’re doing on the frontlines to support our communities during this tumultuous time. I am going to keep fighting for the funding and resources—like these grants—that will help Oregonians in every corner of our state get where they’re going safely.”<\/p>\n

“Rural Oregonians depending on public transit to get around their communities need to know that option remains viable during this public health crisis,” wyden dijo<\/b>. “More needs to be done of course to help these Oregonians and the public transit employees working hard under very challenging conditions, but I am gratified these resources are now on the road to help our state’s rural communities.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Specifically, the grants will provide for rural operations, preventive maintenance work, project administration, intercity bus operations, and direct and indirect state administration costs related to the response to the coronavirus public health emergency.<\/p>\n

The first tranche of funding will be made available in the coming months, with estimated allotments as follows:<\/p>\n
