FTA Announces Funding Opportunity for Research to Practice Initiative<\/h2>\n

Published on: <\/strong>August 16, 2021<\/em><\/p>\n

FTA today announced the\u00a0opportunity for national nonprofit organizations to apply for $545,000 in funding to launch a new Research to Practice (R2P) Initiative to develop a systematic approach for sharing lessons learned from FTA research.\u00a0The R2P will identify research methods that work best for transit professionals as well help develop plans to put them into practice. The successful organization also will help create an outreach program to highlight FTA research findings for future use by transit agencies.<\/p>\n

Funding for the Research to Practice Initiative is provided under FTA\u2019s Technical Assistance and Workforce Development Program. This program\u00a0supports FTA\u2019s\u00a0Research, Demonstration and Innovation program<\/a>\u00a0activities by assessing promising practices for R2P within the transit industry.<\/p>\n

More details about this funding opportunity and instructions for applying\u00a0can be found on FTA\u2019s\u00a0website<\/a>. Complete proposals must be submitted by October 12, 2021.<\/p>\n
