This grant will provide matching funds for grants from the US Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration and the NC Department of Transportation to purchase Geographic Information System (GIS) hardware and software for 18 Rural Planning Organizations (RPOs) that serve tobacco-dependent counties. GIS resources are needed by RPOs to provide coordinated regional transportation planning resulting in individual project ranking systems that prioritize transportation projects for North Carolina’s next Transportation Improvement Program funding cycle. This will allow these counties to compete for transportation needs in their respective regions and will assist rural areas in North Carolina in planning for needed transportation improvements that will help them to be competitive in attracting economic growth and investment.
Any project more than a couple of years old may not reflect current Board priorities.
Please contact a staff member with any questions.
