Job Access Reverse Commute and
New Freedom Grants

The Puget Sound Regional Council is a designated recipient of Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) and New Freedom funds apportioned to the Seattle-Tacoma-Everett Urbanized Area by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). As a designated recipient, PSRC is responsible for the competitive distribution of both JARC and New Freedom funds.

WSDOT Consolidated Grant Program

As the RTPO (Regional Transportation Planning Organization) for central Puget Sound region, PSRC is responsible for regionally ranking projects that will be applying for special needs transportation funds from WSDOT Public Transportation Division’s Consolidated Grant Program. This biennial process is conducted with the JARC and New Freedom competition since many projects sponsors apply for both sources of funding (state and federal). For more information, please see: WSDOT’s Consolidated Grant Program.
