The
following is a list of solicitations issued
by the Department in connection with
its Urban Partnership Program
announced in December 2006.
The Urban Partnership Program
reflects the Department’s effort to
develop, in the words of U.S.
Transportation Secretary Mary Peters,
‘‘21st Century Solutions to 21st Century
Challenges’’ facing the Nation’s
transportation network. One such
challenge is the severe and worsening
problem of metropolitan traffic
congestion. Through the Urban
Partnership Program, the Department is
offering a combination of grants,
technical expertise, regulatory relief and
credit support to jurisdictions which are
prepared to experiment with four
strategies believed to be effective, on a
combined basis, in reducing
metropolitan traffic congestion: (i) Value
pricing, (ii) bus transit, (iii)
telecommuting and flextime, and (iv)
intelligent transportation technology.
