King of Prussia BID
As we continue to struggle to see what's included in the upcoming economic stimulus package we are continuing to look for direction and we have just been given some. Below are the websites that are being used for FHWA and FTA.
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA):
"As you are aware, Congress is drafting economic recovery legislation which will include significant new funding for transportation infrastructure. While the details and timing of the proposal are still being debated, the legislation could become law as early as mid-February.
The Federal Highway Administration stands ready to implement the economic recovery and is taking steps to ensure effective coordination and support among federal agencies as well as preparing our partners and stakeholders to implement the recovery legislation as expeditiously as possible. To assist all state and local agencies in this preparation we have established this economic recovery web page which includes a series of key questions and answers (Q&As). These Q&As will continue to be updated as more information becomes available and this web page will provide all stakeholders with the latest information.
We have also developed and posted a list of actions that can be taken to expedite the economic recovery delivery. We encourage all potential recipients of highway-related economic recovery funding to review and move forward on those items that are applicable.
If you have any questions with regard to these materials please contact Gloria Shepherd, Associate Administrator for Planning, Environment, and Realty at mailto:gloria.shepherd@dot.gov"

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA):
"This version of FTA guidance reflects assumptions contained in draft legislation that is expected to change before it is enacted into law. Future updates to this page will reflect the most current version of the economic recovery legislation available.

As you know, Congress is developing legislation to support President Obama’s economic recovery plan. The legislation is expected to include significant new funding for transportation. While the details, timing, and funding levels of the proposal are not yet finalized, the legislation could become law as early as mid-February.
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is taking action to support our grantees and other stakeholders in implementing the terms of the legislation as expeditiously as possible. We are also working closely with our federal partners to ensure effective coordination. One of our initial tasks involves working with state and local governments and public transportation providers to prepare projects that could be funded with additional resources as soon as the legislation is enacted.
To help keep you informed of how the economic recovery legislation affects our grantees and stakeholders, FTA will update this website as often as necessary. Please check back regularly for critical updates to guidance and other information.
Please do not hesitate to contact your FTA Regional Office, http://www.fta.dot.gov/regional_offices.html to discuss any questions or concerns not addressed here."
