Navigating Federal programs and services
The funding shortfall for marine port and terminal infrastructure, and airport enhancements is expected to be more than $123 billion over the next 10 years. Though multimodal programs and services for capacity and efficiency projects is increasing, so is the complexity of applying for a grant and the competition for them. Historically, only 5¢ has been awarded for every $1 requested.
