ODOT Program Resource Guide for Funding in 2022

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) Program Resource Guide is intended to provide a “one-stop shopping” document to ODOT’s constituents – local governments, transportation advocacy groups, planning organizations, and Ohio’s citizens. The ODOT Local Funding calendar is also a handy reference to all the ODOT program grants available and their timelines.

ODOT Local Funding Dates to Remember

According to the ODOT website, Ohio has the 4th largest interstate system, the 5th largest traffic volume, the 4th largest truck traffic volume, and the 2nd largest bridge inventory in the nation. Ohio also ranks in the top 12 nationally for transit riders, transit miles traveled, and the number of transit vehicles operating in the state. Additionally, Ohio has 176 public use aviation facilities, over 4,200 miles of bikeways and 5,330 miles of railroad tracks, and nearly 6,400 railroad crossings.  

With such a diverse transportation system, Ohio is eligible for many different federal funding programs, each with different eligibility requirements and submission schedules. ODOT has created a handy program guide and calendar as an overview of available transportation infrastructure funding sources, how to access them, and the contact names for assistance in securing funds to address the issues crucial to the continued development of transportation-related projects to help project sponsors and officials’ access all of the transportation dollars for which they may be eligible.
