ADA:

Facilities must be designed to reasonably meet the needs of persons with disabilities. In so doing, the participant must comply with all applicable provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Additional Information is available at www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada.

Title 23:

All SRTS infrastructure projects and non-infrastructure activities need to comply with applicable provisions in Title 23, such as project agreements, authorization to proceed prior to incurring costs, etc. In addition, infrastructure projects under the SRTS program must comply with Davis Bacon prevailing wage rates, competitive bidding, and other contracting requirements, even for projects not located within the right-of-way of a federal-aid highway.

As part of the Title 23 requirements, all projects funded by SRTS funds must also comply with National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) regulations. Most SRTS infrastructure projects will likely fall under the categorical exclusions provisions of Title 23 Code of Federal Regulations Section 771.117 that recognize construction of bicycle and pedestrian lanes, paths, and facilities as not involving significant environmental impacts.

TIP / STIP:

All projects within a metropolitan planning organization (MPO) funded by the SRTS program must be programmed in a metropolitan planning organization’s Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).

Applicants are responsible for any and all local permits relevant to their project. Please work with your appropriate partners to determine necessary permits.
