• Section 5316 - Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC)

• Section 5317 - New Freedom (NF)

Applications will be accepted through July 19th, 2011 by New York State Department of Transportation's, Public Transportation Bureau, for the JARC and New Freedom programs for non-urbanized areas of the state (population less than 50,000) and several small urban areas (population 50,000 to 200,000 population): Binghamton, Glens Falls, Kingston and Utica - Small Urbanized Areas.

Eligible sub recipients to apply for the JARC and New Freedom funding, are municipalities, non-profit agencies, and operators of public transportation services, including private operators of public transportation services, as well as federally recognized tribal governments. It is anticipated that applications will be released in June 2011 with an application deadline of July 19th, 2011.

The goal of the JARC program seeks to improve access to transportation services to employment sites and employment related activities for welfare recipients and eligible low-income individuals and transport residents of urbanized areas and non-urbanized areas to employment opportunities. Such services may include, but are not limited to: mobility management and expansion of current transportation services.

The New Freedom program seeks to reduce barriers to transportation services and expand the transportation mobility options available to people with disabilities beyond the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. Eligible projects may include; expanded service beyond current ADA limitation, projects that fund non-key station improvements and support of mobility management and other mobility supports to improve access to transportation.

Both funding sources require that projects be derived from and identified in a Coordinated Human Service and Public Transportation Plan (CHSPTP) and be coordinated with other federally-assisted programs to ensure efficient use of federal funds. Coordinated Plans can be viewed on PTB website at: https://www.nysdot.gov/divisions/policy-and-strategy/public-transportation/local-dev-coordinated-plans
