The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) is seeking applications for a total of $10 million in funding under the state's Rail Service Improvement program.
The program awards grants to projects designed to enhance safety, promote economic efficiency and improve sustainability to the state’s rail network, KDOT officials said in a press release.
Applications are due Aug. 30. The awards will be announced in spring 2025. Applicants are required to provide a 30% match of total project cost. There are no minimum or maximum project-award amounts.
Qualified entities include Surface Transportation Board-certified short lines or regional railroads, port authorities, or owners or lessees of industry track located on or adjacent to a short line or regional railroad in the state.
