RAISE

The Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) Transportation Discretionary Grants program grants replaces the pre-existing BUILD and TIGER grant programs.  Projects for RAISE funding will be evaluated based on merit criteria that include safety, environmental sustainability, quality of life, economic competitiveness, state of good repair, innovation, and partnership. Within these criteria, the Department will prioritize projects that can demonstrate improvements to racial equity, reduce impacts of climate change and create good-paying jobs.
