Funding

Maintaining, operating, and improving the Madera region’s transportation system takes money. In addition to investing in transportation to move people and goods, investments are made to advance economic opportunity, social equity, and an elevated quality of life for residents in the Madera region. We manage and distribute funds from a variety of sources at the federal, state, and local levels. In fact, MCTC is funded by dozens of revenue sources. These funds come with constraints; they are typically tied to projects with certain modes of transportation, and we cannot interchange them. Restrictions from funding sources may specify how funds must be used on certain modes of transportation.

Federal sources of revenue include Federal Transit Administration discretionary funds, Federal Highway Administration funds, and funds from other sources. State revenues include Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account funds, State Highway Operations and Protection Program funds, and funds from other sources.
