Regional Surface Transportation Program

The Regional Surface Transportation Program was established by the State of California to utilize federal Surface Transportation Program funds for a wide variety of transportation projects. The State allows the Madera County Transportation Commission to exchange these federal funds for state funds to maximize the ability of local public works departments to use the funds on a wide variety of projects including bicycle and pedestrian projects, local roads, and transit. The Madera County Transportation Commission has the responsibility for distributing these funds to the local jurisdictions. The exchanged funds are distributed on a fair share basis.
