Fresno has recently secured two significant transportation grants aimed at enhancing efficiency and accessibility within the city. The first grant, amounting to $52.1 million from the California State Transportation Agency, represents the largest ever received by Fresno's Transportation Department. This funding will contribute to the development of a new bus route, clean-energy fueling stations, new bus stops, and improved access to Fresno Yosemite International Airport. The city plans to allocate $21.5 million towards establishing its 19th bus route, which will run from southeast to southwest Fresno, featuring solar lighting and digital message signs at stops. Part of this investment will also go towards constructing a hydrogen fueling station to accommodate the upcoming hydrogen buses in the city's fleet. Additionally, the city received a $6 million federal grant to support the completion of the new terminal concourse at Fresno-Yosemite International Airport as part of the $150 million FAT Forward terminal expansion project. These grants are expected to enhance the overall passenger experience, improve transportation efficiency, and drive economic growth in the San Joaquin Valley. This development underscores Fresno's commitment to building a more sustainable and accessible transportation infrastructure for its residents and visitors.
